The ocean is essentially our planet's climate control system, a massive engine that never stops working. For thousands of ...

A little background: What’s so special about the Galápagos? There is far more than one could learn in a lifetime about geology, ecology, biology, and evolution from the Galápagos Archipelago, and part ...

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready... A sprawling, slow-moving system of ocean currents circulating in the Atlantic that help regulate the earth’s temperature is set to deliver a blob of warmer, ...

A vital system of Atlantic Ocean currents that influences weather across the world could collapse as soon as the late 2030s, scientists have suggested in a new study — a planetary-scale disaster that ...

A warming climate doesn't just affect dry land — it affects the ocean, too. For many years, Earth's ocean has acted as a heat sink for climate change: A large part of the heat generated by human use ...

A crucial system of ocean currents may already be on course to collapse, according to a new report, with alarming implications for sea level rise and global weather — leading temperatures to plunge ...

The bad climate news keeps coming: A new study adds to the evidence that the Atlantic Ocean’s critical system of currents will eventually collapse in response to melting ice sheets in Greenland ...

For nearly twenty years, satellites have quietly gauged the flow of sunlight and heat through the Earth’s atmosphere. Today, scientists say those measurements indicate a disturbing trend — the ...

Ming Feng receives funding from CSIRO, the Integrated Marine Observing System (IMOS), Western Australia State Government, and Fisheries Research and Development Corporation On land, we’re familiar ...

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 ...
