wind‐driven currentsABSTRACT It is shown that Lakes Entrance, a township located at the northern end of Ninety Mile Beach in southeastern Australia, is situated in a region that may experience noticeable changes in longshore wind, wave and ocean currents compared to present day climate variability...
The wind in your dream could be symbolic of your own spirit or the life force. The wind may represent changes in your life; the greater the force of the wind, the grater the change. A very gusty wind could represent stress and turmoil but also the energy that you need or have to mak...

Internal waves contain a large amount of energy in the ocean and are an important source of turbulent mixing. Ocean mixing is relevant for climate because it drives vertical transport of water, heat, carbon and other tracers. Understanding the life cycle of internal waves, from generation to dis...
The power of the wind has been harnessed by humankind for millennia. First, to propel sail boats across oceans and against river currents, then by windmills for grinding grain, cutting wood, or pumping water. By the late 1800s, small wind turbines were generating electricity. It took almost ...
The three main types of prevailing winds are polar easterlies, westerlies, and trade winds. How do wind belts affect climate? The system of permanent pressure belts and prevailing winds affect the climate at many places on Earth. The low-pressure zone near the Equator (called the ITCZ) is ...
Storage of anthropogenic heat in the oceans is spatially inhomogeneous, impacting regional climates and human societies. Climate models project enhanced heat storage in the mid-latitude North Pacific (MNP) and much weaker storage in the tropical Pacific. However, the observed heat storage during the ...
