A new report on the state of the world’s oceans paints a grim picture. The ninth annual Copernicus Ocean State Report ...

How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...

According to NASA data, Earth is reflecting less and less sunlight. Here are the potential consequences of that.

Emerging scientific research suggests a grim reality where the Atlantic Ocean’s formidable currents may collapse within the next few decades. This potential collapse, fuelled by the relentless ...

Scientists have spotted something dramatically unusual in the ocean, and it could be a warning sign of things to come. Warm air dances with cold air; cold water chases warm water. It's all a part of a ...

The AMOC essentially acts as a very slow conveyor belt circulating warm water north and cool water south. As the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has explained, the whole process takes ...

LONDON (CNN/CNN Newsource/WKRC) - Parts of the world could face a deep freeze if a crucial network of Atlantic Ocean currents collapses, according to a new study. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning ...

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 Coast ...

The world’s largest iceberg is “rapidly breaking up” into several large “very large chunks,” scientists from the British ...

As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar have become popular, yet there's a massive, largely untapped resource beneath ...

The world's oceans cover more than 70% of Earth's surface. They're filled with currents, some much stronger than the fastest flowing large rivers. These currents can be harnessed as clean, marine ...

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 under ...
