The Southern Ocean can release stored heat during cooling, creating short-term warming. This discovery shows climate recovery ...
As warming weakens ocean circulation, the seas could increasingly become a source of heat-trapping gas, a new study finds. “Some climate models predict a 30 percent slowdown in the ocean circulation ...
In case you haven't been paying attention, it's getting hotter every year, and some environments are beginning to reach a ...
The ocean has helped mitigate global warming by absorbing about a quarter of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, ...
As climate change advances, the ocean’s overturning circulation is predicted to weaken substantially. With such a slowdown, scientists estimate the ocean will pull down less carbon dioxide from the ...
Floating ocean plastics can take more than 100 years to disappear, breaking into tiny fragments that slowly sink to the seafloor.
How will climate change influence the ocean’s circulation in the future? This is what a recent study published in Nature Communications hopes to address as a researcher from Massachusetts Institute of ...
The Global Climate Tipping Point Report (GCTPR) published on Oct. 13, 2025, reveals that the planet has already stepped over its first cliff edge, marked by the collapse of warm water coral reefs.
Climate models suggest that climate change could reduce the Southern Ocean's ability to absorb carbon dioxide (CO2). However, ...
A new study strengthens evidence that the oceans and climate are linked in an intricate dance, and that rapid climate change may be related to how vigorously ocean currents transport heat from low to ...
The Last Glacial Period was characterised by dramatic shifts in climate and ocean circulation that have deeply influenced global carbon cycles and climate variability. Evidence from sediment cores, ...
Scientists may have to rethink the relationship between the ocean's circulation and its long-term capacity to store carbon, new research suggests. As the ocean gets weaker, it could release more ...
