The cold water upwell, which is vital to marine life, did not materialize for the first time on record. Researchers are trying to figure out why. By Sachi Kitajima Mulkey Each year between January and ...

Results reveal how large-scale ocean-climate interactions affect reef ecosystems thousands of kilometers away and provide a valuable framework for identifying reefs that may benefit from such ...

New findings show that some coastal regions will become far more acidic than scientists once thought, with upwelling systems pulling deep, CO2-rich waters to the surface and greatly intensifying ...

Exactly how the turbulent mixing of ocean water relates to global overturning circulation has been little understood by oceanographers, but an international research team, including an Earth system ...

OCEAN CITY, N.J. (CBS) — Families heading to the Jersey Shore this week are facing unusually cold ocean temperatures. Professor Anna Pfeiffer-Herbert, who chairs Stockton University's Marine Science ...

The Great Southern Australian Coastal Upwelling System is an upward current of water over vast distances along Australia’s southern coast. It brings nutrients from deeper waters to the surface. This ...

A subpolar gyre is a large-scale ocean current system located at high latitudes created by a persistent region of low atmospheric pressure. These gyres circulate water in a cyclonic direction – ...

HOLLAND, MI - Just in time for the weekend, a cold-water upwelling has occurred at some beaches along the Lake Michigan shoreline, plunging water temperatures into the 50s in some spots. Water ...
