The ocean’s circulatory system may not be doing as poorly as previously thought. A vital ocean artery known as the Florida Current, a bellwether for the ocean’s ability to regulate Earth’s climate, ...

Scientists have uncovered strong evidence that a major Atlantic Ocean current system tied to global climate is weakening. The ...

As climate change and human activities continually ramp up, fish are forced to find ways to adapt. As fish move around to ...

A surprising technique has helped scientists observe how Earth’s oceans are changing, and it’s not using specialized robots or artificial intelligence. It’s tagging seals. Several species of seals ...

Ocean currents driven by wind, water density, tides, ocean floor features, or the Coriolis effect, have an important role on climate regulation and marine ecology. In turn, increasing water surface ...

The research suggested the Atlantic's western boundary is the first place to look for broader changes.

Iceland’s relatively mild climate is shaped by a crucial network of currents that winds its away around the Atlantic Ocean transporting heat northward — without it, the island would be much icier and ...

Two recent events involving coastal currents raise the question of which way the nearshore waters flow along the Central Coast. One of these was the tragic death of a swimmer at Lover’s Point in ...

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 ...

Parts of the Amazon rainforest could see a 40 percent drop in annual rainfall if climate change slows the Atlantic Meridional Ocean Circulation (AMOC), according to a new study led by CU Boulder with ...
