A new University of Miami study looked at forty years worth of data from across the Atlantic and found cooler waters in deep currents off the U.S. coast could be warming. The current, known as the ...

This map of kinetic energy flux shows the global average power density calculated using drifter data in watts per square meter. As global electricity demand grows, traditional energy sources are ...

A NEW interest seems now to be taken in Ocean Currents, and much is being said and written upon the subject. In the investigation of this subject it is very important that we should understand ...

As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar ...

The black and white Galapagos Penguins landed on the endangered species list in 2000 after the population plummeted to only a few hundred individuals Most live on the archipelago's westernmost ...

Melting Antarctic ice is slowing Earth's strongest ocean current, according to a new study. The influx of cold meltwater could slow the Antarctic Circumpolar Current by up to 20% by 2050 ...

Recent studies show the melting ice sheets surrounding Antarctica are having repercussions on the Antarctic Circumpolar ...

Scientists are alarmed by the slowing of a key ocean current. The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the world’s strongest, is weakening. This shift, driven by climate change, could lead to ...

Between Hawaii and California, trash swirls in giant ocean currents, caught up in the infamous, Texas-sized Great Pacific Garbage Patch. This is just one of many found across the globe. Efforts to ...

Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter Program data, a study shows that ocean currents off Florida's East ...
