Despite the sea appearing to be a calm and uneventful natural feature, the depths of the ocean were not an alien ecosystem. A recent study indicates the connection between nature and the processes ...

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 ...

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 ...

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. As ...

The heatwave battering Europe may have an unlikely partner-in-crime: a patch of cold ocean water south of Iceland and ...

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 ...

Pumice drifting poses substantial risks to maritime navigation and coastal communities. While traditional ocean-current-based simulations effectively predict drifting patterns, they are ...
