A new AI-driven method called GOFLOW is turning weather satellite images into highly detailed maps of ocean currents. By ...

Ocean currents act like Earth’s hidden conveyor belts, moving heat, nutrients, and life across the globe. From the swift Gulf Stream to the slow thermohaline circulation, they regulate climate, ...

A new study has revealed significant acceleration in the upper-ocean circulation of the equatorial Pacific over the past 30 years. This acceleration is primarily driven by intensified atmospheric ...

Scientists now believe that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation could slow much sooner than expected. We will ...

Using geochemical analyses of marine sediments, researchers have been able to quantitatively reconstruct the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation over the past 12,000 years. An international ...

A growing body of peer-reviewed research is dismantling a persistent misconception: that melting Antarctic ice sheets might produce a silver lining by cooling the planet. Multiple studies published ...

Between Hawaii and California, trash swirls in giant ocean currents, caught up in the infamous, Texas-sized Great Pacific Garbage Patch. This is just one of many found across the globe. Efforts to ...

West-east near-surface current trend between 1993-2022. Blue colors show increased westward currents; red colors show increased eastward currents. The largest trends are observed in the central ...
