Scientists have shown how the freezing of a ‘slushy’ ocean of magma may be responsible for the composition of the Moon’s crust. The scientists, from the University of Cambridge and the Ecole normale ...

The Southern Ocean can release stored heat during cooling, creating short-term warming. This discovery shows climate recovery won’t be quick.

If you know what diatoms are, it's probably because of their beauty. These single-celled algae found on the ocean floor have ...

Using a numerical model that simulates ocean currents, researchers are shedding light on the important ''motion of the ocean'' in the Straits of Florida. They have conducted a first-of-its-kind study ...

The accretion of new material during Pluto’s formation may have generated enough heat to create a liquid ocean that has persisted beneath an icy crust to the present day, despite the dwarf planet’s ...

There's a new theory for how the Moon came to be that would solve some of the Giant Impact Hypothesis' issues. If Earth had a magma ocean on it already, a lot of problems work out. Share on Facebook ...
