Models show that as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation gets weaker, the Gulf Stream will drift northwards. There ...

A long-term study uncovers a massive freshwater influx transforming the Southern Indian Ocean and reshaping how scientists understand global ocean circulation.

The oceans are mostly composed of warm salty water near the surface over cold, less salty water in the ocean depths. These ...

A huge stretch of the Southern Indian Ocean is rapidly losing its salt, and scientists warn this subtle shift could quietly disrupt global ocean currents and marine life in unexpected ways.

Han’s team estimates that the area covered by salty seawater in this Southern Indian Ocean region has shrunk by about 30% over the past 60 years. They describe it as the fastest freshening seen ...

It stretches nearly 480 kilometres in width. Scientists estimate that millions of cubic metres of water fall downward every second. Its flow rate is several times greater than that of the largest ...

The southern Indian Ocean off the west coast of Australia is becoming less salty at an astonishing rate, largely due to climate change, new research shows. In a study published in Nature Climate ...

The water in the Southern Indian Ocean, off Australia’s west coast, is getting noticeably less salty – and it’s happening at a pace that surprised researchers. A new study argues this isn’t a small, ...

The Southern Indian Ocean off the west coast of Australia is becoming less salty at an astonishing rate, largely due to climate change, new research shows. In a study published February 3 in Nature ...

Abstract: The Mississippi Sound (MS Sound) is an elongated, shallow lagoon-type or bar-built estuary with its major axis parallel to the Gulf of Mexico that extends east-west along the southern coasts ...

While we can’t usually observe coastal currents from the shoreline, water in the oceans of the world is in constant motion. Surface currents are driven by wind blowing across the sea surface, and ...
