The study helps explain why 2023 and early 2024 saw unprecedented ocean temperatures. The rate of ocean warming has more than quadrupled over the past four decades, a new study has shown. Ocean ...

The ocean is full of wondrous creatures, from small plankton to enormous whales. However, a different kind of animal has taken the world by storm thanks to a recent YouTube video. In the 30-second ...

Subtle temperature differences at the ocean surface allow more carbon dioxide (CO2) to be absorbed, new research shows. Subtle temperature differences at the ocean surface allow more carbon dioxide ...

A new 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, ...

The ocean surface boundary layer (OSBL) is a dynamic region that mediates the exchange of momentum, heat, and gases between the atmosphere and the ocean. Recent advances in observational and ...

Scientists from the Department of Geography and Environmental Science at Queen Mary University of London have developed a simple model to show how buoyant plastic can settle through the water column ...

NASA's about to launch a huge spacecraft to a world harboring voluminous seas. Planetary scientists suspect Jupiter's moon Europa contains an ocean at least twice the size of Earth's. The Europa ...

The rate of ocean warming has more than quadrupled over the past four decades, a new study has shown. Ocean temperatures were rising at about 0.06 degrees Celsius per decade in the late 1980s, but are ...
