The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), an ocean current system that transports heat from the tropics to the ...

A vast network of ocean currents nicknamed the "great global ocean conveyor belt" is slowing down. That's a problem because this vital system redistributes heat around the world, influencing both ...

Oceanography, Vol. 25, No. 2, SPECIAL ISSUE ON Internal Waves (JUNE 2012), pp. 20-29 (10 pages) ABSTRACT. Ocean tides, and the atmospherically forced oceanic general circulation and its associated ...

Right now, the world’s best weather forecast model is a General Circulation Model, or GCM, put together by the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. A GCM is in part based on code that ...

The Southern Ocean can release stored heat during cooling, creating short-term warming. This discovery shows climate recovery won’t be quick.

The warming climate in polar regions may significantly disrupt ocean circulation patterns, a new study indicates. Scientists discovered that in the distant past, growing inflows of freshwater from ...
