The GEBCO bathymetric compilations are produced using the outputs of a range of regional and global mapping projects, including the Global Multi-Resolution Topography (GMRT) (Ryan et al., 2009), ...

By Park Hye Ri The Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries on March 30 announced in a world first confirmation of the expansion of Atlantification of the Arctic Ocean deep into the latter's western section ...

Ice and snow reflect sunlight, keeping the Arctic cool, while large dark areas of open ocean absorb abundant solar energy, which triggers more ice melt and delays the autumn refreeze.

As Earth warms, the Arctic Ocean’s ability to absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere is waning due to melting permafrost and worsening coastal erosion, according to new research.

Arctic sea ice has declined since the start of the satellite record in 1979. Consequently, Arctic Ocean navigation that was unthinkable during most of the twentieth century is more practical now—but ...

In the seminar, Greenaway discussed the revised measured deepest depth of Challenger Deep to 10,935 meters – that’s about 35,876 feet. “So 10,935 meters is how deep the ocean is, plus or ...

New research by an international team of scientists explains what's behind a stalled trend in Arctic Ocean sea ice loss since 2007. The findings indicate that stronger declines in sea ice will ...

Ahead, the serrated cliffs of Andøya, a Norwegian island 300km north of the Arctic Circle, mask the partial winter sun. Moderate offshore winds whip off the surface of Andfjorden and bring the ...

And here, in a stretch of the Arctic Ocean 250 miles north of where they’d ever been seen before: capelin. And they were everywhere.
