Deep below the Indian Ocean, there’s a giant “gravity hole” over one million square miles in size, a depression in the Earth’s crust that has puzzled scientists for decades. While it’s technically not ...

Until now, a global evaluation of ocean current energy with actual data was lacking. Using 30 years of NOAA's Global Drifter Program data, a study shows that ocean currents off Florida's East Coast ...

Converting the power of water into energy is nothing new. Using ocean waves is. The power of the ocean could soon be used to power homes in the U.S. as scientists prepare to test an untapped form of ...

Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) is gaining renewed attention as a reliable, 24/7 clean-energy option for tropical islands, with a pilot project in the Canary Islands showcasing its potential ...

Geologists have long been captivated by the Indian Ocean's "gravity hole," where the Earth's gravitational pull weakens, its mass falls, and sea levels drop by about 328 feet (100 meters). After years ...

Countries worldwide have been ramping up their investments in marine energy development due to concerns about energy security. Over the past decade, EU nations and private sectors have poured over ...

The Indian Ocean "gravity hole" is a fascinating anomaly in Earth's gravitational field, marked by a region where sea levels are 348 feet (106 meters) lower than average due to an unusually weak ...
