Changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) might be responsible for the ‘cold blob’ (light blue), a ...
As the Atlantic's current weakens, North Atlantic salinity could swing more wildly than ever, raising flood risk on Europe's ...
Climate scientists are increasingly studying the possibility of an Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) ...
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 ...
An ocean current called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation will weaken by 50 percent by 2100. The question is ...
Although it can be hard to tell from looking at the often placid waters of the Earth’s oceans, their currents carry immense ...
Scientists have developed a new method to measure ocean surface currents over large areas in greater detail than ever before. Called GOFLOW (Geostationary Ocean Flow), the approach applies deep ...
A subpolar gyre is a large-scale ocean current system located at high latitudes created by a persistent region of low atmospheric pressure. These gyres circulate water in a cyclonic direction – ...
Something strange is happening beneath the surface of the Atlantic Ocean, and scientists are paying close attention. The Gulf ...
New research from an international group looking at ancient sediment cores in the North Atlantic has for the first time shown a strong correlation between sediment changes and a marked period of ...
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 ...
