Warm / salty water eats the ice from below — stronger currents — what the ice sacrifices from itself to separate with freshwater
between the salty water — stronger currents take it away.
When animals treated this way had been deprived of salt, they did not distinguish
between salty water and plain water, a paper from Zuker's lab reported — just as you would expect if that channel, called ENaC, were required for tasting salt.

Velicogna and her colleagues also measured a dramatic loss of Greenland ice, as much as 38 cubic miles per year
between 2002 and 2005 — even more troubling, given that an influx of fresh melt
water into the
salty North Atlantic could in theory shut off the system of ocean currents that keep Europe relatively warm.
«Curry found that
between 1965 and 1995, about 4,800 cubic miles of fresh
water — more
water than is in Lake Superior, Lake Erie, Lake Ontario and Lake Huron combined — melted from the Arctic region and poured into the normally
salty northern Atlantic.»

The spray - painted composition above,
Salty Water Fishnet, emerges from this shared psychic space, reflecting their oceanic theme and representing a middle ground of sorts
between Olowska and Camplin's disparate approaches.
This large amount of freshwater to the ocean could stop vertical deep sea currents which depend on a starting from surface downwards on a delicate balance
between fresh and
salty water and temperatures.
The warm intruding Atlantic
water is
saltier and denser and flows
between 100 and 900 meters below the surface.
The density difference
between cold,
salty bottom
water and the warm surface prevent effective mixing.
As you might imagine, there is a balance
between inflow (rain and river
water) and outflow (pumping for agriculture and human consumption)... and when that balance is upset, the wells give
saltier water.
Intruding dense
salty warm
water also generates a reservoir of Arctic heat stored
between 100 and 900 meters depth.
The Great Salinity Anomaly, a pool of
water less
salty than normal, was tracked moving around the North Atlantic
between 1968 and 1982.
