Predictions for the world's oceans range from little or no change to partial melting of Arctic and Antarctic loose ice and shelves, with concomitant rises of sea levels. While many "alarmist" scenarios have been proposed, it is generally accepted that in the next 100 years, sea temperatures ...

In that case, the thermohaline circulation of the ocean would be altered, and could further accelerate global warming. Computer models of climate This artistic representation of global warming poses the questions "when?" and "what will happen to the world's oceans?" Melting of ice found in ...

The model results indicate that, besides the localized increase in the equatorial Pacific, the NCP of lower trophic levels in the northern Pacific and Atlantic oceans is projected to be halved with respect to the current climate under a substantial mitigation scenario at the end of the twenty-...
The world's climate is inextricably bound up with the dynamics of the oceans and their physical, chemical, and biological functioning. Changes in global climate will therefore affect not only the circulation patterns of the oceans, but also, by extension, the role of the oceans as a reservoir...
Oceans are under siege from the overharvesting of natural resources, pollution, habitat destruction, invasive species, and climate change. Projected sea level rise and the collapse of commercial fisheries are putting food supplies and coastal areas at risk, potentially leading to economic and social ...

SYDNEY, Oct. 19 (Xinhua) -- Climate change and warmer oceans are likely to change reef ecosystems worldwide, reducing the diversity of invertebrates such as crabs, lobsters and sea urchins, a latest Australia-led research has found. As the oceans get warmer, fish, which seem to be better ...
climate change has induced the global temperature to increase in the range of 0.6–4°C by 2050. This increased temperature of thetropospherebecomes the cause of the cooling ofstratosphere. The cooling of stratosphere causes the enhanced formation of free radical and ozone depletion. The depletion ...
