Ocean currents (洋流) are sometimes called “rivers in the sea ”. One of these “rivers ” in the Atlantic is called the Gulf Stream (墨西哥湾流). It is a current of warm water. Another is the Labrador Current---cold water coming down from the Arctic (北冰洋). Ocean currents affects...

It’s true that deep down on the ocean floor we won’t have the same kinds of currents we find in shallower parts. But we do find what we call turbidity currents. This wasn’t in the book, but the term came up in class. Do you remember what it means W: Uhm, turbidity currents ...

A decline in ocean circulation is expected to stagnate the bottom of the oceans and generate further impacts affecting the marine and climatic ecosystems for many centuries.
How deep are deep ocean currents? The Role of Ocean Currents: Ocean currents play an important role in maintaining life on Earth. Ocean currents help distribute pollution and waste, regulate the temperature and climates, and help some organisms spread and reproduce. ...

The many massive layers of water beneath the wavy surface of an ocean are considered deep ocean layers, and an estimated 90 percent of an ocean is deep water. Different forces combine to cause that water to generate deep ocean currents that flow around t
The generation, energetics and propagation of internal tides in the western North Atlantic Ocean period internal waves - the current and temperture fields are dominated by high mode, incoherent, inertial-character morions which mask the tidal currents...

hiatuses (breaks in sedimentation) from the global ocean spanning 70–0 Ma based on the compilation of Dutkiewicz and Müller19from 293 scientific deep-sea drill holes (Fig.1; see “Methods” section). Our analysis shows the presence of ~2.4 Myr eccentricity cycles linked to orbitally-...
