FAU’s Southeast National Marine Renewable Energy Center (SNMREC) has received an $800,000 grant from the U.S. Department of ...

The currents in question are those forming the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a giant ocean conveyor ...

The Earth’s climate has dampening feedbacks as well as runaway tipping points, but they might be too small to save us.

In research published today in Nature, we show almost half of the heat waves and cold snaps reaching the ocean's twilight zone—between 200 and 1,000 meters—are driven by large eddy currents ...

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 ...

The study was conducted by Australia's national science agency CSIRO and the Chinese ... The research also highlights the influence of ocean currents, in particular eddies, on MHWs, indicating ...

Global warming caused vital Atlantic Ocean currents to collapse just before ... at The Arctic University of Norway, told Live Science in an email. The Last Interglacial period (130,000 to 115,000 ...

We used this rich data to uncover the role of eddy currents. Ocean eddies are huge loops of swirling current, sometimes hundreds of kilometres across and reaching down over 1,000 metres.

Complementary studies by separate teams have explored the interactions between melting ice in the North Atlantic and the flow of a crucial ocean current. One intensifies the alarm many ...

Melting Arctic ice impacts ocean currents and temperatures significantly. Past data links Arctic ice melt to cooling in northern Europe. Study emphasises risks of climate changes affecting global ...
