Something has shifted in the way climate scientists talk about their own work. The language has become noticeably more ...

Changes in wind patterns play the leading role in influencing often devastating tropical rainfall changes, rather than simply ...

A newly formed El Niño could strengthen into a “super” event by winter, altering US heat, rain, hurricanes and even 2026 ...

A developing El Niño is already altering Pacific winds and ocean heat, setting up possible shifts in U.S. weather and hurricane seasons in 2026.

Ocean surface wind changes regulate air–sea exchanges of momentum, buoyancy, and gases, with far‑reaching implications for the climate system. Although human influences on Southern Hemisphere winds ...

Since early this year, we’ve been talking about the potential of a strong El Niño forming in the waters of the south-central ...

An international research team led by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon has, for the first time, succeeded in visualizing and quantifying the complex airflow dynamics directly above the ocean surface in ...

A new AI-driven method called GOFLOW is turning weather satellite images into highly detailed maps of ocean currents. By tracking how temperature patterns shift over time, it can reveal fast-moving, ...

Most of Earth's fresh water is locked in the ice that covers Antarctica. As the ocean and atmosphere grow warmer, that ice is melting at a startling pace with sea levels and global currents changing ...

The Southern Ocean Meridional Overturning Circulation (SO MOC) plays a critical role in redistributing heat, carbon and other tracers globally. Despite its importance, substantial inter-model ...

Researchers have discovered that local sea breezes and mountain thermal winds work together to lift harmful black carbon ...

NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center confirms El Niño has formed and could strengthen in 2026, with potential impacts on storms, rainfall and weather patterns in Tennessee.
