The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), an ocean current system that transports heat from the tropics to the ...

Abrupt climate changes have affected rainfall patterns worldwide in the past, especially in the tropical monsoon region, a new study shows. An international team of scientists used dripstones from ...

Scientists outline the first direct evidence linking seemingly random weather systems in the ocean with climate on a global scale. The team's work creates a promising framework for better ...

Basic circulation model indicates that increasing global wind power by 18-34 times from 1 Terawatt today will be like doubling atmospheric CO2. This would be counter to the stated goals of reducing ...

The Southern Ocean can release stored heat during cooling, creating short-term warming. This discovery shows climate recovery won’t be quick.

Physical processes with higher global monsoon simulation skill in CMIP6 than in CMIP5. The green shading represents the difference in local summer precipitation biases between CMIP6 and CMIP5. Global ...

The Southern Ocean has been dutifully gobbling up a century's worth of carbon dioxide and heat released by human activities, but when we finally let go of our fossil fuel habit, it might come back to ...
