A new study by an international research team found that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has remained stable since 1963, contradicting previous claims of a long-term weakening trend.
The hole in the Antarctic ozone layer has caused changes in the way that waters in those southern oceans mix, which has the potential to alter the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and eventually could have an impact on global climate change, according to earth scientist
A NASA-built instrument aboard an international satellite has made its first global map of the saltiness of Earth’s seas, just three months after the high-tech sensor rocketed into orbit.On the colorful map, yellow and red represent areas of higher salinity (or salt
After just two years in orbit, ESA's GOCE satellite has gathered enough data to map Earth's gravity with unrivaled precision. Scientists now have access to the most accurate model of the 'geoid' ever produced to further our understanding of how Earth…
ESA’s GOCE satellite has reached its ambitious goal of mapping Earth’s gravity with unprecedented precision. In two short years, the sophisticated satellite has collected the measurements needed to record the ‘geoid’ reference shape of our planet. “GOCE is one
