Scientists found invisible plastic pollution across the North Atlantic Ocean. These particles harm both wildlife and humans.

The Titanic wreckage s about 12,500 feet deep in the North Atlantic — that's as deep as about nine Empire State Buildings stacked on top of each other.

The water mass, named the Atlantic Equatorial Water, forms along Earth's equator as ocean currents mix separate bodies of water to the north and south.

A patch of the Atlantic Ocean just south of Greenland is cooling while much of the world warms. The origin of this "cold blob ...

Plastic pollution tends to float near the surface and build up in large, rotating ocean currents known as gyres. The ...

Water parcels followed on their journey through the ocean record physical properties, such as temperature and salinity. Following moving tagged parcels is a complement to describing ocean properties ...

In the mid-20th century, when people looked at a map of the world, they saw the familiar continents surrounded by vast, featureless oceans. Beneath the waves, the ocean floor was largely unknown ...

Previously, such blobs of equatorial water were only discovered in the Pacific Ocean and the Indian Ocean, but not the Atlantic.

Their project, dubbed Seabed 2030, aims to map the entire ocean floor in just over a decade by upgrading our current mapping systems.

A Google Map by NOAA shows where in the Atlantic Ocean the Titanic wreckage is located, hundreds of miles from Newfoundland, Canada. NOAA/Google Maps How deep is the Titanic wreckage?

Researchers created a detailed physical model that suggests a major Atlantic Ocean current will weaken far less under climate change than indicated by more extreme climate model projections.
