Panama's Ocean "Lifeline" Collapsed In 2025, Breaking A 40-Year Pattern, Study Finds
Between December and April, strong northern trade winds normally push warm surface water offshore.

Ocean Burning Beneath The Waves, Arabian Sea Hardest Hit
The Red Sea and Persian Gulf show impacts across about nine per cent of their waters.

UN Confirms 2015-2025 As Hottest Decade On Record
An increase in the concentrations of greenhouse gases "to their highest level in at least 800,000 years" has "upset this equilibrium," says the WMO.

Scientists Plan To Build 150-Meter Wall To Mitigate "Doomsday Glacier" Melting Crisis
Experts have acknowledged significant technical challenges, including the wall's survival in extreme Antarctic conditions and long-term ocean exposure.

2025 Was One Of Three Hottest Years On Record: Scientists
Temperatures remained high despite the presence of a La Nina, the occasional natural cooling of Pacific Ocean waters that influences weather worldwide. Researchers cited the continued burning of fossil fuels that send greenhouse gases into atmosphere

Global Warming May Overshoot and Trigger the Next Ice Age, Say Scientists
Scientists warn global warming may overshoot, triggering extreme cooling and possibly the next ice age through ocean carbon and nutrient cycles.

New Study Shows Antarctic Waters Unleashed Ancient Carbon at the Ice Age’s End
New research shows that shifting Antarctic circulation after the last Ice Age released ancient deep-ocean carbon into the atmosphere. Using Southern Ocean sediment cores, scientists traced how expanding Antarctic Bottom Water mixed long-isolated, carbon-rich waters upward. The findings reveal a major but underappreciated driver of early Holocene wa...

Scientists Warn Southern Ocean Could ‘Burp’ Stored Heat, Delaying Global Cooling for 100 Years
New modelling suggests the Southern Ocean could one day release the vast heat it has stored from greenhouse gas pollution. If CO₂ levels were pushed to net-negative, deep convection may trigger a sudden “thermal burp” that warms the planet for decades. Though idealised, the study shows how Antarctica’s surrounding seas could shape long-term...

Antarctica Nears Irreversible Climate Tipping Point, Scientists Warn
Antarctica is approaching irreversible climate thresholds, scientists warn. Rapid melting of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, record-low sea ice, and collapsing ocean systems could raise global sea levels by over 3 m. These interconnected changes threaten coastal cities and ecosystems, urging immediate emission cuts to prevent cascading global consequ...

Scientists List Pressing Climate Issues: Ocean Warming, Rise In Dengue Among Key Issues
The '10 New Insights in Climate Science 2025/2026' report summarises the work of an international team of scientists, including those from the Indian Institute of Technology Gandhinagar.
