Next-Generation Water Satellite Maps Seafloor From Space
More accurate maps based on data from the SWOT mission can improve underwater navigation and result in greater knowledge of ...
Scientists use satellite data to find ocean zones where trash naturally gathers for easier, faster, and cleaner clean-up.
Currents also move nutrients and salt throughout Earth's ocean basins. Swirling vortexes of the Agulhas rings stand out in ECCO temperature and salinity maps as they move warm, salty water from ...
Scientists registered each found toy into the Ocean Surface Currents Simulation (OSCAR), a computer model that combines data ...
Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter ...
Global warming is having an impact on Atlantic Ocean currents that could lead to significant shifts in weather patterns in ...
“This map has huge implications for scientific research. It will help us understand how the shape of the seafloor is affecting the paths of major ocean currents and the way the ocean water ...
When ocean currents flow around the planet, they move warm and cold water with them, changing the climate and weather as they go. For example, Britain would actually be much colder if it wasn’t ...
