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 ...

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

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 ...

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 ...

Earth’s oceans are perhaps the most beautiful and awe-inspiring natural areas on the planet, but they also hold some of the ...

(CNN) — A vital system of Atlantic Ocean currents that influences weather across the world could collapse as soon as the late 2030s, scientists have suggested in a new study — a planetary-scale ...

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 ...
