Europa’s buried ocean has made it one of the most exciting places to search for life beyond Earth. However, new calculations suggest its seafloor may be calm, cold, and largely inactive, with little ...

The Indian Ocean has a gravity hole where sea levels are about 300 feet lower than nearby areas. Local gravity is slightly lower there, which has puzzled scientists for decades. The gravity hole may ...

Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter Program data, a study shows that ocean currents off Florida's East Coast ...

Converting the power of water into energy is nothing new. Using ocean waves is. The power of the ocean could soon be used to power homes in the U.S. as scientists prepare to test an untapped form of ...

Rigorous tests confirm offshore pumped hydro system can operate reliably in harsh ocean environments ahead of pilot in the Mediterranean Sea Sizable Energy, a pioneer in long-duration ocean energy ...

Geologists have long been captivated by the Indian Ocean's "gravity hole," where the Earth's gravitational pull weakens, its mass falls, and sea levels drop by about 328 feet (100 meters). After years ...

The Indian Ocean "gravity hole" is a fascinating anomaly in Earth's gravitational field, marked by a region where sea levels are 348 feet (106 meters) lower than average due to an unusually weak ...

Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is gaining renewed attention as a reliable, 24/7 clean-energy option for tropical islands, with a pilot project in the Canary Islands showcasing its potential ...
