“I really thought we were going to see a dead body in the water.” Roughly eight million tons of plastic enters the ocean every year. That’s according to a 2015 report, which also identified ...

The global ocean economy is at risk of major disruption without increased protection, according to the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The global ocean economy had ...

ship design and real-time ocean monitoring. Accurately predicting fluid behavior is crucial for industries relying on wave and tidal energy, as well as for design of maritime structures and vessels.

But it’s the motion of the ocean that matters. The hinged wave boards, each with its own motor synced up to software, can precisely recreate eight ocean conditions (from flat calm to typhoonlike ...

It predicts that electrons should show diffraction effects with crystals ... energy is regarded as replaced by a train of waves the wave-length X of which is given by X=(Planck's constant A ...

A marine heat wave is a period of unusually high ocean temperatures and is defined by its duration and intensity. One of the most common ways that scientists measure the ocean’s temperature is through ...

Like ocean waves, these ripples are transverse waves because the surface of the water moves up and down, at 90° to the direction that the wave is travelling. Water waves can reflect or ‘bounce ...

An autonomous underwater vehicle can propel itself efficiently by using the energy in nearby water currents. Underwater and ...
