New research reveals how ocean warming triggered the large-scale retreat of the Northeast Greenland Ice Stream ...

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

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 ...

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

Scientists have uncovered how changing ocean currents in South Georgia's fjords could affect the survival of young mackerel icefish. The species is a key component of the island's rich marine ...

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 ...

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 ...

A surprising technique has helped scientists observe how Earth’s oceans are changing, and it’s not using specialized robots or artificial intelligence. It’s tagging seals. Several species of seals ...

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 ...

A couple billion years ago the ocean was the cradle of life. Throughout the ages it's been the gateway to riches, exploration and colonization. Now it holds the answers to the climate and ultimately ...

An abrupt shutdown of Atlantic Ocean currents that could put large parts of Europe in a deep freeze is looking a bit more likely and closer than before as a new complex computer simulation finds a ...
