Deep sea mining, seafloor vents, underwater drones, bioluminescent sharks, and the disturbing effects of ocean acidification highlight the near future of oceanographic discovery.

Warming ocean water is weakening a major current system called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which helps regulate global weather. Melting ice in Greenland and freshwater from rivers are making the ocean less...

As the planet warms, there's more water vapor in the air, which makes storms stronger and causes heavier rain and snow. This extra heat and humidity can also make it dangerous to live in some places, especially at night when bodies can’t...

The Arctic is warming quickly, and this is changing the jet stream—a strong wind high in the sky that affects weather. The jet stream is becoming slower and more wavy, which causes extreme weather to last longer, like very cold winters...

The oceans are very important in climate change because they take in almost 90% of the heat trapped by greenhouse gases and a lot of carbon dioxide. This makes the oceans warmer and more acidic, which has led to record-low sea ice,...

Ice flower is a nickname for a miniature sculpture of ice that forms on only a few kinds of plants, only when the air temperature is below freezing for much of the night, with calm wind, clear sky, and soil that is moist and not frozen....

It was the scene of the most cataclysmic natural disaster in American history, a place of unimaginable devastation. Today, the crater of Mt. St. Helens Volcano is experiencing a rebirth — it’s the site of the world’s newest glacier. Not...

It’s a mile long and 150 feet high, and covered in the most spectacular ice falls anyone has ever seen. And it’s all human made. The Ouray Ice Park is the world’s premiere location for ice climbing and attracts visitors from around the...

Over the last decade, the American Northeast has seen more than a 200% increase in the frequency of large, disruptive snowstorms. This trend surprised nearly everybody, including many of the top experts, as they had been expecting a...

Dr. Boyd explains what a thermometer is, the units that temperature is measured in, and how to properly read a thermometer. Then he demonstrates a thermometer in action in hot and cold conditions. Minute 0:30 – Introduction Minute 0:55 –...

This video explores three intriguing physics problems: why shaken carbonated drinks explode, why ice melts differently in fresh water versus salt water, and how a metal ring can lock onto a chain unexpectedly. Demonstrations and...
