The Pacific Ocean’s western boundary current, which forms a critical regulator of sea surface temperature and weather patterns, has significantly strengthened as the planet warms, according to a new ...

The ocean current brings the water with different concentrations of PCBs from a remote area and therefore changes the local concentration of PCBs; the eddy diffusion acts to reduce the spatial ...

Ocean circulation is the global conveyor belt that redistributes heat, salt and nutrients, shaping climate patterns and marine ecosystems. At the heart of this system are boundary currents, narrow and ...

The Brazil Current (BC) is a weak western boundary current flowing along the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean. It is frequently described as a flow with intense mesoscale activity and relatively low volume ...

Comprehending the workings of western boundary ocean currents, like those of the Agulhas Current off the South African coast, may hold a key to Earth’s climate system. But understanding this ...

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. -- A new study led by researchers at Binghamton University, State University of New York found that the Kuroshio Current Extension is sensitive to global climate change and has the ...
