Pressure is measured in millibars. Standard pressure at sea level is 1013 millibars, but large areas of either high or low pressure can occur. Areas of high and low pressure are caused by rising ...

I’m really trying to offer an alternative to that system where you could, as a small company, very easily get access to data right away in sort of a live forecast model,” said the Current Lab founder.

Forty-four of the world's leading climate scientists have called on Nordic policymakers to address the potentially imminent and "devastating" collapse of key Atlantic Ocean currents. The currents ...
