The analysis probes the co-variability of atmospheric vertical motion and precipitation with SSTs over the main western boundary currents of both hemispheres using high-resolution reanalysis, ...

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 East/Japan Sea is a complex and dynamic marginal sea whose circulation patterns are governed by a combination of local atmospheric forcing, basin geometry, and exchanges with surrounding margins.

A new study projects that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC)—the system of currents that includes the ...

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation brings heat to the Northern Hemisphere and regulates the climate globally, ...

A team of the world’s leading ocean and climate scientists in 2024 penned an open letter presented at the Arctic Circle ...

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, ...

Cooling in the subsurface waters beneath Greenland’s Nioghalvfjerdsfjorden Glacier (79NG) from 2018 to 2021 was driven by European atmospheric blocking, which forced changes in the large-scale ocean ...

"That is quite a shocking finding." Scientists issue warning over concerning phenomenon that could cause powerful ocean ...

A barrage of intense, wild swings in climate conditions may have fueled the largest mass extinction in Earth’s history. A re-creation of how ancient sea surface temperatures, ocean and atmosphere ...

Tokyo, Japan – Operators have pumped water to cool the nuclear reactors at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) since the accident in 2011 and treated this cooling water with the Advanced ...
