Flawed Alarmism: Coastal Cliff Erosion in California and the Inaccuracies of Climate Change Projections
Kanik’s article ignores the longstanding problem of coastal cliff erosion
Is the Antarctic-driven abyssal ocean overturning doomed in 2050?
Further failures by Nature’s review and editorial process, combined with uncritical and amplified media promotion, have unnecessarily confused the science and public.
Historic New Oceans Treaty?
“After two decades of planning and talks that culminated in a grueling race over the past few days in New York, a significant majority of nations agreed on language for…
Why Cooking With Gas Won’t Melt Arctic Sea Ice: Temperature Anomaly Graphs Obscure Important Dynamics
It reveals the critical climate dynamics of ocean currents that naturally transport warm warm water from the tropics into the Arctic causing very different local temperatures and sea ice extent.
Tiniest Ever Ancient Seawater Pockets Revealed
The surprising discovery of seawater sealed in what is now North America for 390 million years opens up a new avenue for understanding how oceans change and adapt with the…

The proposed Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind Project is directly in the NARWs’ annual migration path.
Natural Oceanic Cycles Behind Heavy East Australia Rains, New Study Finds
In other words, rains and dry periods depend on what the oceanic cycles are doing, and not CO2. Understanding the key natural cycles is key.
University of Rochester Researchers Go ‘Outside the Box’ to Delineate Major Ocean Currents

Plate Tectonics Drives Ocean Oxygenation
… these findings reveal the hitherto underestimated role played by plate tectonics in the evolution of biodiversity in the oceans over geological time scales.
Why the Sun, Not CO2, Heats the Oceans Revisiting the Debate: Does Greenhouse Back-radiation Warm the Oceans?
After analyzing the physics detailed in this video, I’m convinced it is solar energy that drives the observed ocean heating, and any infrared ocean heating is insignificant at best.
Evolving To Outpace Climate Change, Tiny Marine Animal Provides New Evidence of Long-Theorized Genetic Mechanism
“These copepods are a saltwater species that now needs to adapt to much fresher water in their environment.”
Stronger Overturning Circulation in the Pacific During the Last Glacial Period
Data from fossil corals points to changed circulation of ocean currents – an important finding for climate models
How ‘Viral Dark Matter’ May Help Mitigate Climate Change
The question of magnitude is a serious consideration when taking into account the vastness of the ocean.
Model vs Model: Is the North Atlantic Current Collapsing?
12,900 years ago the North Atlantic Current failed, likely due to the emptying of an enormous glacial lake. This catastrophic lake failure is believed to have disrupted ocean currents, which…
