After sifting through ocean current data dating back three decades, researchers at the Florida Atlantic University (FAU) have identified ideal locations for generating renewable energy. Florida’s east ...

Scientists reveal that Antarctica’s ocean current formed slowly and needed winds, ice, and shifting continents to shape Earth’s climate.

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 ...

Offshore wind farms are an important pillar of the European Union's strategy for renewable energy—by 2050, the EU aims to increase capacity in the North Sea more than tenfold. A new study by the ...

Learn how the Antarctic Circumpolar Current formed during the Oligocene, as winds, shifting continents, and ocean gateways ...

Diurnal amplitude estimates of CCMP 6-hourly wind speed (m s −1) based on data from 2010–2019 during (A) December to January (DJ) and (B) July to August (JA). Vertical profiles of hydrographic ...

In order to understand currents, tides and other ocean dynamics, scientists need to accurately capture sea surface height, or a snapshot of the ocean's surface, including peaks and valleys due to ...
