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

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

Melting Antarctic ice sheets are slowing Earth’s strongest ocean current: ‘There could be severe consequences’ - Freshwater ...

We explore the science behind deadly rip currents with ocean safety expert Bruckner Chase and scientist Greg Dusek ...

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.

Ocean currents respond to changes in temperature, salt levels, wind patterns and sea ice extent. So the global ocean conveyor belt is vulnerable to climate change on multiple fronts. Previous ...

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 ...

Square waves form when two wave systems collide, creating dangerous ocean patterns that threaten boats and swimmers.

the ocean current would continue in its weakened state, supported by upwelling of North Atlantic deep water driven by winds in the Southern Ocean. “Southern Ocean winds continue to blow and this ...

Freshwater is less dense than saltwater, interrupting the natural sinking of the denser water that helps to power ocean currents. Also driven by temperature and wind, ocean currents help to ...
