Studio Ghibli’s Ocean Waves drifts away from fantasy toward memory and realism. Modest yet heartfelt, it captures adolescence ...

The best perk of Alberto Maspero’s job, he says, is the view from his window. Situated on a hill above the ancient port city of Trieste, Italy, his office at the International School for Advanced ...

A small test site miles off the Oregon coast will soon generate electricity with the motion of the ocean. PacWave, as the site’s called, is not expected to produce much energy, but its technologies ...

During recent storms, satellites recorded ocean waves averaging nearly 20 meters high—as tall as the Arc de Triomphe in Paris and the largest ever measured from space. Moreover, satellite data now ...

Constant, powerful, and notoriously difficult to harness, wave energy has become a sort of holy grail in renewables over the years. Wave and tidal converters are used across the globe, from Sri Lanka ...

In theory, harnessing all the wave energy along the coasts of the United States could generate 2.64 trillion kilowatt hours of power. Cost and the corrosive nature of salt water are but two obstacles ...

New research shows that marine heat waves can reshape ocean food webs, which in turn can slow the transport of carbon to the deep sea and hamper the ocean's ability to buffer against climate change.

The planet would be a whole lot hotter if it weren’t for fecal pellets. Across the world’s oceans, tiny organisms known as phytoplankton harvest the sun’s energy, gobbling up carbon dioxide and ...

Awareness is both pervasive and subtle. Paradoxically, it is at once everywhere and seemingly nowhere. It’s everywhere because you can’t experience anything outside of awareness, pretty much by ...

What if the vast, untapped power of ocean waves could finally be harnessed without the staggering costs, environmental risks, and technical headaches that have plagued traditional wave energy systems?

In the North Pacific Ocean off the Kamchatka Peninsula, nonlinear internal waves (NLIWs) are still studied insufficiently. The purpose of the study was to establish patterns in the distribution of ...
