Deep Sea Explorations

Vast expansion of the blue ocean is always an intriguing sight. It embodies the under water world of animals, plants, insects apart from great secrets, treasures, misfortunes and resources. Read More...

What is Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion?

The oceans cover a little more than 70 percent of the Earth's surface. This makes them the world's largest solar energy collector and energy storage system. Read More...

What's to see in the Ocean?

The ocean plays an essential role in the world's climate system, absorbing about half the heat from the sun. The heat escapes to warm the atmosphere, mainly through evaporation either locally or months or years later having been transported by ocean currents thousands of kilometres. Read More...

Climate and Computer Modelling

The temperature patterns of our global oceans and the seas around Australia influence changes in rainfall and the evolution of our climate, which are important issues for our environment and several primary industries. Read More...

Basics of Hurricane

The ingredients for a hurricane include a pre-existing weather disturbance, warm tropical oceans, moisture, and relatively light winds aloft. If the right conditions persist long enough, they can combine to produce the violent winds, incredible waves, torrential rains, and floods we associate with this phenomenon. Read More...

What is AVHRR?

The primary sensor on board the NOAA polar-orbiting satellites is the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR). The AVHRR instrument consists of an array of small sensors that record (as digital numbers) the amount of visible and infrared radiation reflected and (or) emitted from the Earth's surface. Read More...

Petroleum(Oil) in Sea

Oil was formed from the remains of animals and plants that lived millions of years ago in a marine (water) environment before the dinosaurs. Over the years, the remains were covered by layers of mud.  Read More...

Methyl Bromide in the Atmosphere and Ocean

An understanding of the global distribution and temporal trends of atmospheric methyl bromide (CH₃Br) is necessary to place constraints on the magnitude and distribution of its sources and sinks. Although evidence suggests that the atmospheric burden of CH₃Br increased during the 1980s, its atmospheric mole fraction does not appear to have changed significantly during the past decade. Read More...

Ocean temperatures and sea level increases 50 percent higher than previously estimated

The results are reported in the June 19 edition of the journal Nature. An international team of researchers, including Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory climate scientist Peter Gleckler, compared climate models with improved observations that show sea levels rose by 1.5 millimeters per year in the period from 1961-2003.  Read More...

Climate Models Consistent with Ocean Warming Observations

Climate models provide spatially complete ocean temperature data, so unlike the incomplete observations, infilling is not required. By sampling the models only where there are observations, the Livermore team found that infilling had a pronounced effect on observed estimates of ocean variability, and brought model results closer in line with observations. Read More...

Bacteria "Feed" on Earth's Ocean-Bottom Crust

Seafloor bacteria on ocean-bottom rocks are more abundant and diverse than previously thought, appearing to "feed" on the planet's oceanic crust, according to results of a study reported in this week's issue of the journal Nature.  Read More...

Deep Sea Fish Oil - Complete lead to Natural Deep Sea Fish Oil

Deep sea fish oil is the best oil if you’re looking for fish oil. But this is not for all time the case for many reasons, mainly looking at what fish analysis shows. As we know range of Ocean waters are being contaminated. Deep sea fish was considered to be the healthiest foods .  Read More...
