An international research team led by the Helmholtz-Zentrum Hereon has, for the first time, succeeded in visualizing and ...

The ocean essentially gets confused about which way to flow, with water simultaneously trying to move in two different directions.

As the ocean floor shifts up or down, the water above it also moves, creating waves that spread out. The size of the tsunami is determined by how much the ocean floor moves, the area affected, and ...

How to turn ocean waves into renewable energy Converting the power of water into energy is nothing new. Using ocean waves is.

A laser-equipped research platform has, for the first time, photographed airflow just millimeters above ocean waves, revealing two simultaneous wind–wave energy-transfer tricks—slow short waves steal ...

Sound waves travel through different types of matter, including liquid water. Importantly, the movement of ocean water can greatly affect how sound waves travel from one point to another.

Series of storms could bring life-threatening ocean waves to the Pacific Northwest leading up to Christmas The Christmas holiday will bring a variety of weather conditions across the U.S.

These seismic events move Earth's surface, displacing the water above and generating waves that rapidly travel in all directions across the ocean or body of water. Not all earthquakes create tsunamis.

These ocean quotes will transport you to the ocean and are great to use as captions for all your beach and vacation photos.

Since the upper layer of air is less dense, it moves at a higher speed, and "pushes over" the tops of clouds. This creates the shape of crashing waves.
