New research reveals a powerful yet overlooked driver of climate change: intensifying ocean eddies. These swirling ...
After measuring the size of nearly 1 million fish and sharks over a 14-year period, researchers concluded that the species grew larger in remote and protected locations, free from the interference of ...
Scientists have developed a new method to measure ocean surface currents over large areas in greater detail than ever before.
A new study published this month has highlighted the growing dangers of changes in ocean currents. According to this new research, weaker circulation in the ocean currents could actually enhance the ...
We’ve all seen the surreal footage in nature documentaries showing hydrothermal vents on the frigid ocean floor—bellowing black plumes of super-hot water—and the life forms that cling to them. Now, a ...
For the first time, a study from researchers at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego integrates climate-related damages to the ocean into the social cost of ...
When Susanne Neuer closed her eyes, she could see it: the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean. A smile broke out on her face as she reminisced about the times her family visited the coastline of ...
How will the climate crisis affect one of the ocean’s fiercest predators? New research published Wednesday has examined what might happen to sharks’ highly specialized, flesh-cutting teeth. As carbon ...
Global warming poses a significant threat to human society. Rapid and substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions are necessary measures to mitigate global warming. However, substantially ...
As one of the largest heat reservoirs in the climate system, the global ocean absorbs more than 90% of the excess energy from ongoing anthropogenic warming. In the last century, the greatest warming ...
A study published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences has found that ocean warming in 2024 has led to new record high temperatures. The ocean is the hottest it has ever been recorded by humans, not ...
