Super El Niños happen when water in the tropical Pacific heats up, changing weather patterns all around the world. The hotter ...

The climate forecasts about the region surrounding the Pacific Ocean point to an emergence of change in the global climate.

A warm wind shift is unfolding in a remote part of the equatorial Pacific Ocean. And despite its geographical isolation, it could signal the start of a planetary change in ocean temperatures and ...

Scientists reveal that Antarctica’s ocean current formed slowly and needed winds, ice, and shifting continents to shape Earth’s climate.

A super El Niño may develop in 2026 and impact U.S. weather.

The trade winds are permanent east-to-west prevailing winds that flow in Earth's equatorial region, blowing mainly from the northeast in the Northern Hemisphere and from the southeast in the Southern ...

The maximum Antarctic sea ice extent in 2023, shown here, was the lowest on record. The yellow line shows the average winter maximum of satellite observations from 1981 to 2010. New research shows ...

The interactions between global climate change and ocean oscillations -- fluctuating cycles in wind and ocean temperatures -- are impacting weather patterns in the Greater Mara-Serengeti ecosystem in ...

Researchers show that the all-time record low in winter sea ice extent in 2023 can be explained by warm Southern Ocean conditions and patterns in the winds that circled Antarctica months earlier, ...
