An artistic visualization of ocean currents from NASA has people mesmerized learning about our planet's underwater highways.

A recent study reveals our warming world is triggering shifts in winds and ocean currents, which is likely contributing to an increase in harmful carbon pollution. An international team of scientists, ...

An ocean current called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation will weaken by 50 percent by 2100. The question is ...

The Global Ocean Observing System informs weather forecasts and climate projections. But funding pressures could create data ...

Something strange is happening beneath the surface of the world's oceans, and scientists are paying close attention. Currents that have kept global temperatures relatively stable for thousands of ...

A system of Atlantic Ocean currents crucial for regulating the world's weather and ecosystems might be more resilient against climate change than previously thought, a new study found. Researchers ...

The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the strongest ocean current on Earth, is rapidly weakening due to the accelerating ...

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a large-scale and delicate system of ocean currents, responsible for our warm climate.

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 Coast ...

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 ...
