In the Western Arctic, the largest reservoir of heat in the upper ocean (above ~200 m depth) is Pacific Summer Water (PSW)12,13. PSW originates as Pacific ocean water entering through Bering Strait, and is considerably warmed while transiting across the shallow Chukchi shelf during summer ...

Cold nights drag the average Palm Springs February temperatures down into the low 60s. Daytime temperatures, however, hover around the 70 mark – much more amenable. Layer on lashings of Californian sunshine and things really start to heat up. ...

The intrusion of relatively warm water onto the continental shelf is widely recognized as a threat to Antarctic ice shelves and glaciers grounded below sea level, as enhanced ocean heat increases their basal melt. While the circulation of warm water has

The findings are incompatible with the idea that the tropics serve as an evolutionary cradle for marine fish diversity, and also raise questions about whether the rapid cold-ocean speciation reflects a recent and ongoing expansion of marine diversity there. ...
