The top layer represents the location of the sound source and the path of sound propagation (A). The bottom layers represent convergence zones with different sound propagation paths (B-F). Sound waves ...

Scientists first recorded Earth's low-frequency "hum" in the 1960s, but its origin was a mystery. Now it is believed the noise is caused by ocean swells generated in the Southern Ocean, the sound of ...

The 360-degree video captures ocean waves along the rocky lava coastline in Hana, Maui, with natural sights and sounds.

Researchers have pioneered the use of parallel computing on graphics cards to simulate acoustic turbulence. This type of simulation, which previously required a supercomputer, can now be performed on ...

As this year’s El Nino continues to strengthen, potentially becoming the strongest on record, its impacts are being felt across the globe. While much of what’s to come remains uncertain, El Nino ...

We used three-dimensional imaging of ocean waves to capture freakish seas that produce a notorious phenomenon known as rogue waves. Our results are now published in Physical Review Letters*. Rogue ...

Sound waves travel through different types of matter, including liquid water. Importantly, the movement of ocean water can greatly affect how sound waves travel from one point to another. Mesoscale ...
