The Challenger Deep (CD) is the deepest known hadal trench in the world. Due to challenges in data sampling at extreme ocean depths, the Lower Circumpolar Deep Water (LCDW) transport and ocean ...
New ocean floor discoveries show AMOC has weakened 15% since 1950 and could slow 51% by 2100, with cascading effects on ...
A key current in the Atlantic may be slowing down. But changes deep below the waves don’t generate obvious visual narratives.
The vertical diffusivity in the ocean is known to vary widely across the global ocean, and understanding this variation is essential for simulating water mass transformation and global ocean ...
The warm Gulf Stream is maintained by coldness. The Barents Sea is a cooling machine. To predict how ocean currents in the ...
Ventilation is an important process within the global ocean, where waters sink to deeper layers, are transported by deep currents, and eventually get upwelled back to the surface. This process affects ...
A new decades-long study of oceanographic conditions provides new evidence that deep-ocean heat has moved closer to Antarctica, threatening the ice shelves that fringe the continent. Researchers at UC ...
One of the ocean currents in the Arctic Ocean is at risk of disappearing this century because of climate change, according to a new joint study from the University of Gothenburg and the German Alfred ...
Around 13,000 years ago, as the world was emerging from the grip of the last ice age, much of the North Atlantic region ...
South of Sri Lanka, the Indian Ocean’s surface dips in a broad, subtle depression that has puzzled geophysicists for decades.
