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, ...

The global ocean “conveyor belt” circulation, shown in part here as red and blue lines, circulates cooler seawater below the surface and warmer seawater at the surface throughout the world’s oceans.

During the last ice age, the Atlantic Ocean’s powerful current system remained active and continued to transport warm, salty water from the tropics to the North Atlantic despite extensive ice cover ...

Scientists found that the strength of the Florida Current, the beginning of the Gulf Stream system and a key component of the global Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, has remained ...

Each year, vast blooms of phytoplankton spread across the Southern Ocean, drawing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and ...

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.

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 ...
