What are the trade winds? - NOAA's National Ocean Service
28 Mar 2026 at 7:35pm
The Charles W. Morgan is the last of an American whaling fleet that once numbered more than 2,700 vessels. Ships like the Morgan often used routes defined by the trade winds to navigate the ocean. Known to sailors around the world, the trade winds and associated ocean currents helped early sailing ships from European and African ports make their journeys to the Americas. Likewise, the trade ...
What is upwelling? - NOAA's National Ocean Service
29 Mar 2026 at 12:07am
Winds blowing across the ocean surface push water away. Water then rises up from beneath the surface to replace the water that was pushed away. This process is known as upwelling.
What is a Rossby wave? - NOAA's National Ocean Service
28 Mar 2026 at 9:22pm
What is a Rossby wave? Rossby waves, also known as planetary waves, naturally occur in rotating fluids. Within the Earth's ocean and atmosphere, these waves form as a result of the rotation of the planet.
Natural Threats to Coral Reefs: Corals Tutorial
27 Mar 2026 at 7:04am
Coral reefs face numerous threats. Weather-related damage to reefs occurs frequently. Large and powerful waves from hurricanes and cyclones can break apart or flatten large coral heads, scattering their fragments. A single storm seldom kills off an entire colony, but slow-growing corals may be overgrown by algae before they can recover. Reefs also are threatened by tidal emersions. Long ...
What Factors Determine Earth's Climate?
25 Mar 2026 at 10:01pm
What Factors Determine Earth?s Climate? The climate system is a complex, interactive system consisting of the atmosphere, land surface, snow and ice, oceans and other bodies of water, and living things. The atmospheric component of the climate system most obviously characterises climate; climate is often defined as ?average weather?. Climate is usually described in terms of the mean and ...

In the U.S., where over half of us live along the coast and more than 78 percent of our overseas trade by volume comes and goes along our marine highways, the health of our coasts is intricately connected to the health of our nation's economy. The National Ocean Service (NOS) translates science, tools, and services into action, to address threats to coastal areas such as climate change ...
Coastal Flooding in California: What You Need to Know
20 Mar 2026 at 9:07am
Californians living on the coast may be used to seeing so-called ?King Tides,? a regular phenomenon where high tides are higher than normal on certain days of the year. This winter, King Tides ? also known as spring tides ? are even higher due to El Niño, causing flooding in low-lying areas of California?s coast.
