Scientists fear warming is driving a collapse in the ocean currents that shape climate far and wide. The ice-choked waters ...

Scientists have uncovered how changing ocean currents in South Georgia's fjords could affect the survival of young mackerel ...

An abrupt shutdown of Atlantic Ocean currents that could put large parts of Europe in a deep freeze is looking a bit more likely and closer than before as a new complex computer simulation finds a ...

Sound waves travel through different types of matter, including liquid water. Importantly, the movement of ocean water can greatly affect how sound waves travel from one point to another. Mesoscale ...

(CNN) — 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 ...

A new study suggests the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation has not weakened since the 1960s — but there's no doubt the circulation will slow in the future, experts say.

A subpolar gyre is a large-scale ocean current system located at high latitudes created by a persistent region of low atmospheric pressure. These gyres circulate water in a cyclonic direction – ...

(CNN) - An alarming new study shows what could lie ahead if climate change is not brought under control. Researchers said the warming of the planet has the potential to collapse the world’s crucial ...
