ocean circulation

Ocean warming can have numerous consequences that impact ecosystems, sea-levels, and currents

Warming is making surface currents shallower and faster

High-resolution ocean models reveal worlds strongest currents will experience an acceleration in marine heatwave events

Method may help quickly identify regions where objects, and missing people, may have converged

Scientists suspect that meltwater from Greenland and excessive rainfall could interfere with the North Atlantic Current

Years ago, scientists realized that earthquakes along mid-ocean ridges are linked with the tides. But nobody could figure out why there’s an uptick in tremors during low tides

The discovery suggests that local ocean currents may play a critical role in the ice shelf's future retreat

Long-term melting may lead to release of huge volumes of cold, fresh water into the North Atlantic, impacting global climate

A new study has highlighted a widespread picture of Atlantic circulation changes associated with rapid climate change in the past

Engineers at Sandia National Laboratories are conducting the largest model-scale wave energy testing of its kind to improve the performance of wave-energy converters
