A new study gives alarming glimpse into the future, as some scientists warn these currents could be just decades from collapse.

Vast amounts of organic carbon settle on the seafloor each year, coming from decaying marine life and from living (or once ...

Using data from satellites and ocean models and our response curves, we predicted monthly distributions for each of our 171 species in the mid-Atlantic. To make this huge quantity of data manageable, ...

This breakthrough sets a new benchmark in global ocean modeling and challenges the current semiconductor export restrictions imposed by the United States. The new system, LICOMK++, was developed ...

Just below Greenland is a menacing stretch of water known as the Cold Blob. As the planet heats up, the Cold Blob remains a spooky outlier — positioned right above the area where the Atlantic Ocean’s ...

Nonlinear, three-dimensional features that can be simulated by the model include upwelling/downwelling, cellular flow structures, divergence of flow from the equator and extra-equatorial flows, a ...

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, or AMOC, is a giant system of ocean currents that shuttles warm surface ...

Scientists, who have spent more than a decade examining the impact of artificial light at night on the world's coasts and oceans, have shown that more than one-fifth of the global ocean -- an area ...

Researchers created a detailed physical model that suggests a major Atlantic Ocean current will weaken far less under climate change than indicated by more extreme climate model projections.

More than one-fifth of the global ocean—an area spanning more than 75 million sq km—has been the subject of ocean darkening ...

OceanQuest will make its international debut at the 2025 UN Ocean Conference, spotlighting the deep ocean’s role in climate stability, biodiversity, and sustainability ...
