Earth's Strongest Ocean Current Is Slowing Down And It Could Have Devastating Consequences
The ocean current might slow down by around 20 per cent by 2050 in the "high carbon emissions scenario".

Melting Ice Could Slow World's Strongest Ocean Current: Study
The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it with fresh water, according to research published on Monday that warned of "severe" climate consequences.

Ancient Martian Ocean Shoreline Discovered Beneath Surface by Zhurong Rover
China's Zhurong rover has uncovered evidence of an ancient ocean on Mars, with ground-penetrating radar detecting a buried shoreline beneath the Utopia Basin. The rover’s scans revealed sloping sand layers similar to those found on Earth’s beaches, reinforcing theories of long-term water presence. Experts highlight that these formations are not...

6 Bioluminescent Beaches That Will Light Up Your Trip
Ever seen the ocean glow like a scene out of a sci-fi movie? Bioluminescent beaches do exactly that by turning the shoreline into a sparkling dreamscape.

Greenland's Ice Sheet Approaches Dangerous Tipping Point Amid Rapid Melting
Greenland’s massive ice sheet is losing ice at an accelerating rate, with scientists warning that a global temperature rise of just 2°C could trigger irreversible collapse. The loss of 230 gigatons of ice per year is the estimated threshold for this tipping point. If melting continues at current rates, sea levels could rise by approximately 7 me...

Scientists Discover Declining Global Ocean Evaporation Amid Rising Temperatures
Recent research has revealed a decline in global ocean evaporation since 2008, challenging traditional climate models. Despite increasing sea surface temperatures, evaporation rates have decreased across two-thirds of the world's oceans. Scientists attribute this unexpected trend to reduced wind speeds, or "wind stilling," and shifts in atmospheric...

Video: Black Seadevil, A Rare Deep-Sea Fish, Spotted Swimming Near Ocean's Surface
In what may be the world's first-ever recorded sighting, a black seadevil anglerfish - known for living thousands of feet beneath the ocean's surface - was caught on camera swimming close to the ocean's surface.

Scientists Observe Rare Plastic Ice, A Hybrid Form of Ice and Water, Under Extreme Pressure and Heat
Researchers have observed plastic ice, a phase where water molecules rotate while staying in a solid structure. The discovery, made under extreme pressure and heat, could provide new insights into the composition of icy exoplanets and moons. The findings suggest plastic ice VII may have existed in Europa and Titan's interiors and could influence nu...

Seals Can Act As 'Smart Sensors' For Monitoring Fish Population: Study
A new study by marine biologists reports that seals can essentially act as 'smart sensors' for monitoring fish populations in the ocean's eerily dim 'twilight zone.'
