A new report suggests that global warming may increase upwelling in several ocean current systems around the world by the end of this century, especially at high latitudes, and will cause major ...

CORVALLIS, Ore. - A report to be published Thursday in the journal Nature suggests that global warming may increase upwelling in several ocean current systems around the world by the end of this ...

A new study finds slowing ocean currents are reducing nutrient upwelling, leading to less phytoplankton growth and increased CO2 release, potentially exacerbating climate change.

That dip in the ocean after a nice long nap on the beach has not been pleasant for many at the Jersey Shore in recent days. It’s because ocean temperatures have dropped to the upper 50s to middle 60s, ...

Meandering ocean currents play an important role in the melting of Antarctic ice shelves, threatening a significant rise in sea levels. A new study published in Nature Communications has revealed ...

The resulting separation reduces upwelling, which is the ocean’s way of mixing the surface and deep waters to feed marine life. Advertisement Become a KPBS sponsor ...
