Ocean currents in the Bay of Bengal were seen turning left of the wind, revealing limits in Ekman’s century-old circulation theory.

As global electricity use grows, the strain on traditional energy sources increases. Renewable options like wind and solar have become popular, yet there's a massive, largely untapped resource beneath ...

A team of planetary scientists and oceanographers from NOAA, the Indian National Center for Ocean Information Services, and the University of Zagreb, has found an example of an exception to Ekman's ...

This map of kinetic energy flux shows the global average power density calculated using drifter data in watts per square meter. As global electricity demand grows, traditional energy sources are under ...

In order to understand currents, tides and other ocean dynamics, scientists need to accurately capture sea surface height, or a snapshot of the ocean's surface, including peaks and valleys due to ...

Diurnal amplitude estimates of CCMP 6-hourly wind speed (m s −1) based on data from 2010–2019 during (A) December to January (DJ) and (B) July to August (JA). Vertical profiles of hydrographic ...
