Pacific Ocean western boundary currents and the interlinked equatorial Pacific circulation system were among the first currents of these types to be explored by pioneering oceanographers. The ...

The Gulf Stream is a western-boundary current of the Atlantic Ocean. In the Pacific, the Kuroshio Current also transports warm, ... South Atlantic and South Pacific oceans. The associated ...

For example, Pacific Ocean currents have been measured since 1979 but the Indian Ocean currents have only been measured since 1994. Also, most of these high-energy areas are located in relatively ...

The Antarctic Circumpolar Current plays an important part in global overturning circulation, the exchange of heat and CO2 between the ocean and atmosphere, and the stability of Antarctica’s ...

The ocean’s currents and its surface winds drive the captured thermal energy from side to side, either between the east and the west or the north and the south.

Due to global warming, a deep ocean current around Antarctica that has been relatively stable for thousands of years could head for "collapse" over the next few decades.

Some of the fastest ocean currents in the world have been discovered off South Africa, Somalia, Kenya, Tanzania and Madagascar. These can be used to generate energy.
