The Labrador Current is a cold ocean current in the North Atlantic Ocean which flows from the Arctic Ocean south along the coast of Labrador and passes around Newfoundland, continuing south along the east coast
13. PSW originates as Pacific ocean water entering through Bering Strait, and is considerably warmed while transiting across the shallow Chukchi shelf during summer months14. An appreciable amount of the summer warmed water subducts, allowing heat to...
Regional Ocean Modelling SystemROMS is used to investigate a cold-core eddy in the East Australian Current (EAC).The eddy formed on the edge of continental shelf in waters of negative vorticity.A sensitivity analysis on wind shows that wind has little effect on eddy formation.The prevailing ...
5a). In turn this increases ocean stratification and reduces vertical heat exchange between cold surface and warmer subsurface waters. As a result, annual mean subsurface temperatures around Antarctica increase by 1.5 °C over the 21st century in SSP5-8.5 (Fig. 5b). In contrast, in SSP5-...
Current, which is a cold subarctic current that flows south and circulates counterclockwise along the western North Pacific Ocean. In the eastern North Pacific off southern British Columbia, it splits into the southward flowing cold water California Current and the northward flowing Alaska Current.”...
Whether you're dreaming of tropic temperatures in South Florida, hoping for the dry heat in Phoenix or aiming to get a little ocean breeze in a Southern California beach city, you have to determine which climate's positives and negatives will be the best fit for you. "[While] we...
ocean circulations on biogeochemical processes. Additionally, the station-keeping capabilities are critical to the floats because of the drifting performance would cause an uneven distribution of the float arrays, reducing the data quality. This problem is now being addressed by some current model-based...
suggestions is to dilute the product and release it into the atmosphere or ocean, where it would react with carbon dioxide, capturing it in a stable form and preventing it from contributing to global warming. There are groups pursuing field trials using this exact chemical for ocean-based carbon...
Areas of old and cold oceanic plate lack conventional volcanism and have been assumed to be devoid of submarine hydrothermal activity. However, petit-spot volcanoes are common in areas of flexure of such oceanic plates. Here, we report hydrothermal ferro
in the western Pacific Ocean. A favourable neutrino telescope site was found on an abyssal plain at a depth of ~3.5 km. At depths below 3 km, the sea current speed, water absorption and scattering lengths for Cherenkov light were measured to bevc < 10 cm s−1,λabs ...
