The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the strongest ocean current on Earth, is rapidly weakening due to the accelerating melt of Antarctica’s ice sheet. According to a new study published in ...

Antarctica's remote and mysterious current has a profound influence on the climate, food systems and Antarctic ecosystems. Can we stop it weakening by 2050?

During a voyage off the east coast of Africa, researchers collected detailed measurements of massive swirling currents that ...

Scientists are increasingly worried about a potential slowdown of the major Atlantic ocean current. Now we know it would ...

In recent years, scientists have been tirelessly monitoring the ever-changing climate patterns affecting our planet. A new ...

While the study provides hope, ocean current energy isn't easy to capture. Deep water and strong currents create significant engineering challenges.

Scientists have warned that Earth's strongest ocean current is slowing down due to climate change, with potentially disastrous consequences. The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) transports ...

Historically, the ocean has been difficult to model. Scientists struggled in years past to simulate ocean currents or accurately predict fluctuations in temperature, salinity, and other properties.

The Mozambique Channel, between Mozambique and Madagascar, is home to some of the most turbulent waters in the ocean.
