Scientists discovered that in the distant past, growing inflows of freshwater from melting Arctic sea-ice into the Nordic Seas likely significantly affected ocean circulation, sending temperatures ...

Further modified by river inputs and the freezing and melting of sea ice, the Arctic Ocean exports modified waters back into the North Atlantic, thus impacting the global thermohaline circulation.

The concept of thermohaline circulation might sound like a complex term from a science textbook, but it plays a crucial role in our planet’s climate system. Sometimes referred to as the ...

Scientists measured microplastic concentrations in the highly productive Barents Sea and suggest that ocean circulation, ice melt, tourism, inadequate waste management, shipping and fishing are ...

Enhanced melting of sea-ice can significantly change ocean circulation, causing lower temperatures across northern Europe, a new study warns. The above video clip was filmed by the Barents ...

Melting ice in the Antarctic is not just raising sea levels but slowing down the circulation of deep ocean water with vast implications for the global climate and for marine life, a new study ...

The melting of freshwater into the ocean can also disrupt ocean circulation patterns, exacerbating global warming. “Sea ice melting has a big impact for the climate system and for society ...

More than merely cracks in the ice ... Melting, Freezing and Ocean Circulation in an Ice Shelf Basal Crevasse," published in Science Advances. Video of Icefin being deployed through the sea ...

Mohammed Ezat’s research team has now linked the warming climate and enhanced melting of Arctic sea-ice during that era to changes in regional sea-surface temperature and ocean circulation.
