Scientists using NASA and other satellite data discovered an unusual long-lasting, whirlpool-like ocean eddy that generated a dramatic increase in the marine food supply off the Hawaiian coast in 1999 ...

Ocean dynamics encompass the complex interactions that govern the movement of water masses across the globe. At the heart of these processes are mesoscale eddies – coherent, swirling features spanning ...

Scientists from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics (IAP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have developed a new diagnostic framework to better understand and analyze the intricate isoneutral ...

Eddy-mean energy exchange plays an essential role in ocean circulation and climate variability. This study decomposed the eddy-mean kinetic energy exchange into three parts, and linked them with ...

A new study has developed an innovative model to forecast the abundance of Argentine shortfin squid (Illex argentinus) in the ...

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 ...

Moninya Roughan receives funding from National Collaborative Research Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS), and the Australian Research Council. This research was supported by a grant of sea time on RV ...

The ocean has absorbed about 30% of carbon dioxide emissions from human activities since the Industrial Revolution, significantly slowing the pace of climate change. But as emissions continue to rise, ...

For years, climate experts have been sounding the alarm about the worsening impacts of global warming, and a report made by a European news wire agency over the weekend heightened the concerns in an ...
