There's a huge amount of clean energy locked away in ocean waves, if only we could find a way to harness more of it. A new ...

Both winds and tides inject energy into the ocean. Much of that energy is then transported up to thousands of miles by internal waves: large-scale underwater waves that can travel between ocean basins ...

Satellites recorded the largest ocean swells ever seen from space, highlighting how massive waves can act as storm "messengers," carrying a storm's power across entire oceans. Observations from the ...

The GWEC produces electricity using a spinning flywheel housed within a floating structure. As the platform moves with the ...

In renewable energy, the holy grail is a source of energy that is always available. Solar and wind power might be the most common, but there are times when they don’t work because the sun is down and ...

Forget the gentle waves of a sunny day at the beach. The ocean is a terrifying place, capable of displaying fantastical power. Now, a new analysis of the physics behind waves reveals they can reach ...

It might feel unseasonably hot where you are right now. That's thanks in part to a heat wave in the Pacific Ocean.

Scientists have discovered that ocean waves may become far more extreme and complex than previously imagined. The new study, published in Nature today, reveals that under specific conditions, where ...

A quick Google search will tell you that the ocean covers approximately 71% of the Earth’s surface, spanning roughly 139 ...

Did you know that at least since the 17 th century, humans have studied how to turn ocean waves into energy? But like with many other renewable energies, it was only after the oil price crisis of 1973 ...
