North Pacific has decreased by more than 9 percent during the past 20 years, and by nearly 7 percent in the North Atlantic, Gregg and his colleagues determined from their satellite observations and shipboard surveys. Studies combining all the major ocean basins of the world have revealed the ...

Marine debris and in particular plastics have been found in all ocean basins of the world (Barnes et al. 2009; Eriksen et al. 2014; Galgani et al. 2015; Van Sebille et al. 2015). The Arctic region has long been considered a pristine environment, relatively undisturbed by humans. However...
In the mature subduction stage the expansion of ocean basins keeps compensation with the crustal shortening of the subduction,while opening of back-arc basins or marginal seas indicates the mature subduction stage. During the post-mature subduction stage, marginal sea micro-plates are narrowing and ...
Pacific freshwater, river water and sea ice meltwater across Arctic Ocean basins: Results from the 2005 Beringia Expedition [1] Pacific water, sea ice meltwater, and river water are the primary sources of freshwater in the Arctic Ocean. We have determined their relative fraction... EP Jones,...
The difference in timescale may reflect the size of the ocean basins and hence timescale for planetary wave propagation. Decadal Pacific modes include the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and the North Pacific Gyre Oscillation (NPGO; Mantua et al., 1997; Di Lorenzo et al., 2008). These ...

2c). The largest enhancement occurs in the mid-latitude ocean basins, with an increase of up to 100 days. Decreases in annual CLH days are found in parts of the eastern tropical Pacific and high-latitude Southern Ocean. As a global average, the annual CLH days have increased significantly ...
Ocean, continuous body of salt water held in enormous basins on Earth’s surface. There is one ‘world ocean,’ but researchers often separate it into the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic oceans. Covering nearly 71 percent of Earth’s surf
