Scientists have long debated whether the AMOC is nearing collapse, but the latest findings are certainly alarming.

To the casual observer, the look and feel of shipping containers suggests a world of smooth, lossless transportation, almost ...

The potential collapse of a key Atlantic ocean current − due to human-caused climate change − is in the news again. You'd be hard-pressed to come up with a scarier scenario than what's going on now ...

What looks like a work of digital art is actually built by Nasa, using years of satellite observations and ocean measurements ...

Earth's ocean is incredibly vast. Some parts of it are so remote that the nearest human habitation is the International Space Station. As the world warms, what happens in the ocean—and what happens to ...

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 ...

A team of NASA and university scientists has developed a new way to use satellite measurements to track changes in Atlantic Ocean currents, which are a driving force in global climate. The finding ...

The fate of the Atlantic Ocean current that keeps Europe’s climate warm depends on our carbon emissions and the rate of ice melt from Greenland, but there is a chance that a shutdown is already inevit ...
