The influx of cold meltwater could slow the Antarctic Circumpolar Current by up to 20% by 2050, researchers reported March 3 ...

Historically, the ocean has been difficult to model. Scientists struggled in years past to simulate ocean currents or ...

The nightmare scenario of Atlantic Ocean currents collapsing, with weather running amok and putting Europe in a deep freeze, looks unlikely this century, a new study concludes. In recent years ...

Vital Atlantic Ocean currents are unlikely to completely collapse this century, according to a study, but scientists say a ...

But now, this large system of currents in the Atlantic Ocean is weakening and slowing down. And that could spell disaster.

Scientists at the United Kingdom's Met Office and the University of Exeter used simulations from 34 different computer models of extreme climate change scenarios to see if the AMOC would collapse this ...

WASHINGTON — The nightmare scenario of Atlantic Ocean currents collapsing, with weather running amok and putting Europe in a deep freeze, looks unlikely this century, a new study concludes.

Researchers identified a strong negative North Atlantic Oscillation in 2009–2010 as the tipping point that pushed sargassum ...

The Great Atlantic Sargassum Belt has puzzled researchers since 2011. A new model demonstrates that the alga was brought to the tropics by strong currents, and thrived in ideal growing conditions.

Earth's largest iceberg has run aground off the coast of South Georgia Island, a common rendezvous spot for big bergs, new ...

Do the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans mix? Explore the science behind their visible boundary, the role of salinity and ...

Researchers identified a strong negative North Atlantic Oscillation in 2009--2010 as the tipping point that pushed sargassum into the tropical Atlantic, confirming vertical mixing, not rivers, as the ...
