Texas is on El Niño watch as La Niña fades. Here's what a strong El Niño could mean for Texas weather, hurricane season and ...

Meteorologist Nicholas Herboso takes a closer look at the warming Gulf waters and what it could mean for our weather in this ...

Coral reefs over the past 12,000 years grew best when the ocean temperature was 77 degrees Fahrenheit (25 degrees Celsius), ...

Every summer, typhoons threatening the Korean Peninsula draw their energy from the warm waters of the Northwest Pacific Ocean. In recent years, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather ...

Rising sea levels are one of the signals of climate change. Satellite measurements of the height of the ocean surface reveal warming temperatures, melting ice sheets and shifting currents, putting ...

Sea surface temperature (SST) is a fundamental parameter in understanding climate dynamics, ocean circulation and air–sea interactions. Advances in remote sensing techniques have considerably enhanced ...

Gulf temperatures are slowly on the rise, but it's not doing much to Texas' chances for an active hurricane season. The Gulf of Mexico is starting to see above-normal temperatures in August, according ...

As global temperatures rise, so do sea surface temperatures (SSTs), and that’s having a direct impact on hurricane activity. Hurricanes are essentially heat engines, fueled by the warmth of the ocean.

It may sparkle in the sun, but the ocean's surface is a dynamic thermometer for our planet. The sea surface temperature (SST) is measured by satellites and buoys in the ocean, to give the most ...
