How can open ocean currents generate energy? Ocean currents contain kinetic energy that can be converted to electrical power using turbines. This is similar to offshore wind farms, or wind turbines ...

Magellanic penguins are smarter ocean travellers than previously thought, according to a new study involving researchers from Swansea University’s Animal Movement Lab. The findings reveal that these ...

Ocean currents driven by wind, water density, tides, ocean floor features, or the Coriolis effect, have an important role on climate regulation and marine ecology. In turn, increasing water surface ...

Few things in nature are as predictable as ocean tides. Driven by the moon's and sun's gravitational pull, these persistent, short-period, and large-magnitude phenomena are apparent in nearly all ...

The study of ocean tide loading effects and their corrections through Global Positioning System (GPS) estimations has evolved significantly over recent decades. Ocean tide loading models quantify the ...

The National Weather Service warned California beachgoers to stay out of the water due to hazardous conditions as rip ...

King Tides are threatening South Florida with coastal flooding Monday, with possible rip currents endangering beachgoers, the National Weather Service in Miami said. A King Tide is when tides are ...
