The ocean has been heating up over the past century, largely due to human activity that produces heat-trapping greenhouse gases. But strangely, a patch of the Atlantic Ocean south of Greenland and ...

Scientists have linked an unusual "cold blob" in the North Atlantic — one eerily similar to the one featured in the film "The Day After Tomorrow," that has a major impact on global weather. "The ...

Earth’s oceans are heating up, but one patch in the North Atlantic has cooled by about 1 degree Celsius since the 19th century. Scientists now think they know why: The “cold blob” is the result of ...

In the North Atlantic Ocean, south of Greenland and Iceland, a large patch of water is doing something very strange. While the rest of the ocean heats up, it’s been getting colder. A new study says it ...

Over the past 150 years, Earth’s entire surface has been warming, except for one patch of the north Atlantic. Located south-east of Greenland, this area has cooled by as much as 1°C and is known as ...

In 1912, Alfred Wegener proposed the theory of continental drift, linking continents as one supercontinent. A recent study revealed that a massive hot blob beneath New England may reshape our ...

The strange, shiny discovery, retrieved from the ocean near Alaska in 2023, turned out to be part of an anemone, scientists said. By John Yoon Explorers sent a robot two miles under the ocean’s ...

In a tank on the bottom floor of a University of Chicago research laboratory, scientists summon “The Blob” into existence by firing water jets to create an artfully choreographed series of rings.
