A major ocean current in the Southern Hemisphere has reversed direction for the first time in recorded history, in what ...

Something’s stirring in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) – and a strange “hole” of cold water in the ...

In two recent studies, researchers suggest a weakening ocean current system is to blame for a persistent cold spot in the ...

For years, scientists have debated whether a giant thick ice shelf once covered the entire Arctic Ocean during the coldest ...

For decades, scientists believed the Arctic Ocean was sealed under a massive slab of ice during the coldest ice ages — but new research proves otherwise. Sediment samples from the seafloor, paired ...

Large sea anchors could be used to drag water under a bold plan to keep the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation ...

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 ...

The study confirms that the North Atlantic cold patch is due to a weakening ocean current system, not aerosols or wind ...

Critical ocean circulation won’t entirely collapse because of climate crisis - but it’s still in trouble. Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, a key engine of world’s weather ...
