In contrast, westward plumes of dense water are observed moving with the Antarctic Slope Current into the Kerguelen Gyre and associated boundary currents (Fukamachi et al., 2010, Gordon et al., 2009, Gordon et al., 2015). Part of that circulation extends north into the Indian Ocean via a ...
It’s a common misconception that waves are moving water, but they’re actually energy passingthroughthe water. The Southern Ocean, with its vast expanse of open water and consistent and usually very strong winds, is home to some of the largest waves ever recorded. Waves generated in theSouth...
values for the past (especially during drier intervals). However, the reconstructed changes in δ18Osw are principally a function of the amount of fresh surface water in the boundary layer and proportional to SSS changes in the Andaman Sea. This provides a unique, continuous summer monsoon preci...
Whether we make it out or not, I need her. More than water or shelter—more than anything. Dalton will never forgive me if I cross the line with her, but surviving means something different now. Surviving means making her mine. ABOUT BRENDA ROTHERT: A former print journalist, Brenda ...
The phases of ENSO (namely El Niño and La Niña) are driven by the strength of trade winds blowing west along the equator and pushing warm water from South America toward Asia26. During El Niño events, trade winds weaken and warm water accumulates nearby the west coast of the ...
downstream is also enhanced significantly;and at 850 hPa,the low-pressure vortices strongly develop and move eastward while the southwesterly low-level jet over the South China coasts is intensified as shown in CTL,leading to stronger water vapor convergence and upward motion over the precipitation...

Here, a unique 25-year temperature time-series of the upper 800 m, repeated several times a year across the Southern Ocean, allows us to document the long-term change within water-masses and how it compares to the interannual variability. Three regions stand out as having strong trends ...
(1450–1920 CE) is defined by a shift to diatoms indicative of higher water levels and lower conductivity as well as lower PC2 and minerogenic material. Zone I (1920 CE-present) shows a shift towards species with higher salinity tolerances, higher PC2 and diatom-inferred conductivity. (Note ...
The National Geographic Society has now officially accepted that this body of water around Antarctica is a real ocean. Geography teachers will now have to teach their students that the world has five oceans. Alex Tait, a geographer and cartographer at National Geographic, said: "We think it's...
