As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar ...

Scientists use satellite data to find ocean zones where trash naturally gathers for easier, faster, and cleaner clean-up.

Global warming is having an impact on Atlantic Ocean currents that could lead to significant shifts in weather patterns in ...

Melting ice sheets are slowing the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the world's strongest ocean current, researchers have found. This melting has implications for global climate indicators ...

Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter Program data, a study shows that ocean currents off Florida's East ...

The Antarctic Circumpolar Current is involved in everything from storing carbon to guarding Antarctica from invasive marine species, and a slower current could have far-reaching consequences ...

Antarctica's remote and mysterious current has a profound influence on the climate, food systems and Antarctic ecosystems. Can we stop it weakening by 2050? Flowing clockwise around Antarctica ...

Conducted by engineers at Florida Atlantic University (FAU), the research examined the potential of capturing kinetic energy from ocean currents using data collected as part of National Oceanic and ...

This map of kinetic energy flux shows the global average power density calculated using drifter data in watts per square meter. As global electricity demand grows, traditional energy sources are ...

The Antarctic Circumpolar Current could slow by around 20 per cent, the research found (Representational) The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it ...

The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it with fresh water, according to research published on Monday that warned of "severe" climate consequences.
