Did you know the ocean quietly generates half the oxygen we breathe and absorbs nearly a quarter of the world’s CO₂ emissions each year? It covers over 70 percent of our planet, yet surprisingly, it’s ...

Harnessing the power of the ocean, Dolphin Labs’ xNode buoy system might be the sustainable energy technology wave of the future. Sustainable energy is not only beneficial but essential, and ocean ...

University of Queensland researchers have created a microscopic "ocean" on a silicon chip to miniaturize the study of wave dynamics. The device, made at UQ's School of Mathematics and Physics, uses a ...

It’s something surfers, sailors, and coastal walkers have quietly noticed for centuries: ocean waves often seem to come in a repeating pattern, with every seventh wave standing out as bigger, stronger ...
