Scientists fear warming is driving a collapse in the ocean currents that shape climate far and wide. The ice-choked waters ...

There's an underwater conveyor belt flowing through the Atlantic that keeps Europe warm and regulates climate across the ...

Scientists have uncovered how changing ocean currents in South Georgia's fjords could affect the survival of young mackerel ...

While Antarctic meltwater drives rising sea levels, models show it also delays greenhouse gas-induced warming. That’s because ...

How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...

Thanks to an underwater survey robot, oceanographers are getting the first-ever readings collected from underneath East ...

A new study published this month has highlighted the growing dangers of changes in ocean currents. According to this new research, weaker circulation in the ocean currents could actually enhance the ...

As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar have become popular, yet there's a massive, largely untapped resource beneath ...

The ocean currents in the Atlantic are headed toward a total shut down, a new study shows. If that happens, less heat is exchanged across the globe and Europe could go into a deep freeze. Northwestern ...

Ocean currents driven by wind, water density, tides, ocean floor features, or the Coriolis effect, have an important role on climate regulation and marine ecology. In turn, increasing water surface ...

Mars may be around 140 million miles away from Earth, but the red planet is influencing our deep oceans by helping drive “giant whirlpools,” according to new research. Scientists analyzed sediments, ...
