The oceans are mostly composed of warm salty water near the surface over cold, less salty water in the ocean depths. These ...

Could ocean currents ensure that global warming continues even after we have reached carbon-neutrality?  One of the concepts ...

“The configuration of the device allows water to circulate in swirling eddies, in a manner similar to the much larger ‘thermohaline' circulation of the ocean,” the scientists said.

They are driven by both wind and thermohaline circulation interacting with each other. Wind moves the surface waters by friction, but away from the equator the Coriolis effect means this is ...
