During the last ice age, the Atlantic Ocean's powerful current system remained active and continued to transport warm, salty ...

To create accurate climate models, scientists need to understand how long conditions persist in the ocean. A new study led by scientists from the University of Liverpool analyzed the “memory” of the ...

Scientists say the A23a iceberg in Antarctica appears to be stuck in shallow waters.

There's an underwater conveyor belt flowing through the Atlantic that keeps Europe warm and regulates climate across the globe. Yet this enormous system might be heading toward a breaking point. The ...

A new study sheds light on the vital role that the mixing of Atlantic and Arctic waters plays in sustaining the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which is crucial for regulating ...

The Oceanography Society (TOS) has awarded the Ocean Observing Team Award to the Global Ocean Ship-Based Hydrographic ...

As human activities have released greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, trapping excess heat and warming the planet, the ocean has absorbed more than 90% of that excess heat since the 1970s. The ocean ...

Global ocean heat content increased by approximately 23 zetajoules (ZJ) in 2025, roughly 40 times annual global primary energy consumption. This is not good.

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 ...
