Imminent loss of NASA's Aura and Canada's SCISAT will severely diminish scientists’ ability to monitor ozone-depleting substances in the stratosphere.

The ocean is a vital part of our planet's climate system. Through its global circulation patterns, the ocean draws vast quantities of our planet's heat and carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.

Discover groundbreaking research on how atmospheric winds influence ocean eddies, reshaping previous assumptions. Learn how this discovery can enhance climate models, marine navigation, and ...

The Earth’s oceans, vast and mysterious, cover more than 70% of our planet’s surface. They play a critical role in regulating ...

The Hadley circulation, a fundamental component of Earth's atmospheric system, plays a crucial role in global climate ...

One of the ocean currents in the Arctic Ocean is at risk of disappearing this century because of climate change, according to a new study. As a result, the North Atlantic could be flooded with ...

A major ocean current in the Arctic, the Beaufort Gyre, is changing rapidly due to climate warming—and this could trigger a ...
