A powerful 2025 Kuril-Kamchatka earthquake generated a Pacific-wide tsunami, captured by NASA's SWOT satellite. These ...

A rare satellite view captured a major Pacific tsunami in unprecedented detail, revealing wave behaviors scientists did not expect. A satellite designed to track the height of the ocean’s surface ...

Heat waves don’t just strike on land — they can also occur in the ocean. And roughly a third of marine heat waves aren’t detectable at the ocean’s surface, a new study reports. The findings, published ...

The NASA and CNES jointly operated SWOT satellite recorded the massive July 29, 2025 Kuril-Kamchatka Pacific tsunami in high ...

Swimmers at Scripps Beach in La Jolla sometimes experience a water temperature drop of about 11 degrees Celsius (12 degrees Fahrenheit) in a few seconds. A sharp boundary between the leading edge of ...

An intense marine heat wave that has fueled record-warm sea surface temperatures in the world’s oceans in recent months could linger well into the fall, according to an experimental forecast produced ...

Ocean waves can be powerful, containing enough energy to push around sand, pebbles and even boulders during storms. These waves, as well as smaller, more gentle ones, could be tapped as a source of ...

Strain-induced energy harvesting with chromiteen demonstrates its ability to generate electricity from ocean waves, paving the way for marine applications.
