There are studies that predict the end of the Gulf Stream. A recent study from England comes to a less dramatic conclusion.

The Ocean's Protective Blanket Oceans act like Earth's protective blanket, absorbing about 90% of the excess heat generated by human activities. This remarkable ability helps buffer the Earth's ...

“The configuration of the device allows water to circulate in swirling eddies, in a manner similar to the much larger ‘thermohaline' circulation of the ocean,” the scientists said.

Water is transferred around the world as part of what is known as the ocean conveyor belt system or the thermohaline circulation system. The oceans cover 67 per cent of the Earth's surface ...

They are driven by both wind and thermohaline circulation interacting with each other. Wind moves the surface waters by friction, but away from the equator the Coriolis effect means this is ...
