As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar ...

During a voyage off the east coast of Africa, researchers collected detailed measurements of massive swirling currents that ...

After sifting through ocean current data dating back three decades, researchers at the Florida Atlantic University (FAU) have ...

As global electricity demand grows, traditional energy sources are under strain. Oceans, which cover more than 70% of Earth's ...

Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter Program data, a study shows that ocean currents off Florida's East Coast ...

Unlike better known ocean currents – such as the Gulf Stream along the United States' east coast, the Kuroshio Current near Japan, and the Agulhas Current off the coast of South Africa – the ...

The Agulhas Current flows south along the western side of the Indian Ocean. When it reaches the southern tip of Africa, it sheds swirling vortices of water called Agulhas Rings. Sometimes ...

A NEW interest seems now to be taken in Ocean Currents, and much is being said and written upon the subject. In the investigation of this subject it is very important that we should understand ...

Unlike better known ocean currents – such as the Gulf Stream along the United States East Coast, the Kuroshio Current near Japan, and the Agulhas Current off the coast of South Africa – the ...

Similarly, highest power densities in South Africa occurs during their warmer months (December to February). These seasonal patterns indicate that ocean current energy could align well with ...
