One of NOAA’s primary ocean-atmosphere models is now projecting that the Niño-3.4 index, the benchmark gauge of El Niño ...

The oceans play an important role in the earth’s climate; they transport heat from equator to pole, provide moisture for rain, and absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Ocean models, such as this ...

A new decades-long study of oceanographic data provides the first evidence that deep-ocean heat has moved closer to ...

Scientific models have predicted that climate change will drive oceans in the Northern Hemisphere to warm faster than oceans ...

In the field of oceanography, researchers have been successful at simulating the ocean’s large-scale behavior but have struggled to capture smaller turbulent motions that play a key role in moving ...

Researchers from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa recently published a study showing that they can skillfully predict El ...

Large climate models have been running since the 1980s, simulating our home planet’s temperature and weather systems. Science, being the iterative process that it inherently is, has improved upon the ...

The Adriatic Sea and its coastal regions are increasingly exposed to climate variability and extreme events, posing significant challenges to communities, ...

Climate models are complex, just like the world they mirror. They simultaneously simulate the interacting, chaotic flow of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, and they run on the world’s largest ...
