There is a variety of physical processes that can contribute to changes
in ocean volume, including tectonic activity, undersea eruptions of magma and thermal vents, and silt deposition.
In the near - field this effect is demonstrably (Farrell & Clark 1976) larger than the volumetric increase
in ocean volume so that net sea level falls.
Even very small changes
in ocean volume add up to a lot of sea level rise.
Not exact matches
Ocean volume is a significant factor
in sea - level change, Horton said.
Scientific observations show that
in the Arctic, warming temperatures have led to a 75 % loss
in sea ice
volume since the 1980s, and recent reports suggest the Arctic
Ocean will be nearly free of summer sea ice by 2050, said Sullivan.
Ribas and collaborators came up with equally likely scenarios
in which Proxima b loses less water than the
volume of Earth's
oceans.
The melting of a rather small ice
volume on East Antarctica's shore could trigger a persistent ice discharge into the
ocean, resulting
in unstoppable sea - level rise for thousands of years to come.
The
ocean conveyor system, Rutgers scientists believe, changed at the same time as a major expansion
in the
volume of the glaciers
in the northern hemisphere as well as a substantial fall
in sea levels.
In this model, the
ocean beneath the ice makes up 40 % of the total
volume of the moon, while its salt content is estimated to be similar to that of Earth's
oceans.
The
volume of ice divergence has doubled since 2000 due to a more mobile ice cover as multiyear ice has declined, which can explain the drastic ice reduction
in the Arctic
Ocean in recent years.
Yet farming and ranching already exact a daunting toll on the environment: burn down rain forests to create more arable land, dump fertilizers onto fields that run off and choke life
in rivers and
oceans, emit
volumes of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, use up vast stores of freshwater for irrigation.
This glacial meltwater lake was enclosed
in ice and experienced a massive breach during this period, which emptied an enormous
volume of water into the
ocean,» explains Herrle.
Now Brazilian officials speak of 50 billion barrels or more lying below the salt: a 160 - million - year - old empire of hydrocarbons, comparable
in volume to the great oil fields of Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, spread below an expanse of
ocean half the size of Italy — all suddenly within reach.
Researchers looking to solve this mystery found that
ocean heat content had remained high, so a sudden chill
in ocean waters (which would have caused upper layers of the seas to shrink
in volume) wasn't the answer.
The past climates that forced these changes
in ice
volume and sea level were reconstructed mainly from temperature - sensitive measurements
in ocean cores from around the globe, and from ice cores.
If this scenario is accurate, Earth may today hold half as much water
in its depths as is currently flowing
in oceans on the surface, Panero said — an amount that would approximately equal the
volume of the Pacific
Ocean.
Combining satellite observations with
ocean numerical modeling, Khazendar and his colleagues developed a hypothesis that reductions
in the
volume of brine would increase Totten's thinning and melting.
At the end of this summer, only a quarter of the Arctic
Ocean was still covered
in ice, a record low
in modern times, and the total
volume of ice was just a fifth of what it was three decades ago (see «Record Arctic ice loss»).
«The deeper [dolphins] go into the
ocean, the smaller the
volume of gas or air
in the lungs gets,» said study lead author Andreas Fahlman, a professor of biology at Texas A&M University
in Corpus Christi.
And any increase would be small relative to the
volume of the
ocean, so the increase
in salinity would be minimal.
This
Volume 16 of series Sharing Innovative Experiences is a joint initiative of the Special Unit for South - South Cooperation, hosted by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP SS) and the International
Ocean Institute (IOI), Headquartered
in Malta.
Sea level rise has two primary components: the expansion
in volume of seawater with increased temperature and the addition of water
in ocean basins from the melting of land - locked ice, including Antarctica and Greenland.
«Due to its large
volume and surface area, the biogeochemical processes
in the
ocean are the main control on the levels of CO2 and other greenhouse gases
in the atmosphere,» Buchanan said.
Scientists have long suspected that the network of cracks
in Europa's ice sheet could indicate a large
volume of water underneath, and recent analysis of magnetic field data from the Galileo probe seems to confirm there is a salty
ocean down there.
ICESat - 2 will add to our understanding of Arctic sea ice by measuring sea ice thickness from space, providing scientists more complete information about the
volume of sea ice
in the Arctic and Southern
oceans.
These massive farms, or CAFOs — Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations — can house hundreds of thousands of animals
in confined spaces, creating potent
volumes of nutrient pollution that have fouled rivers, lakes and
oceans.
Positive energy content change means an increase
in stored energy (i.e., heat content
in oceans, latent heat from reduced ice or sea ice
volumes, heat content
in the continents excluding latent heat from permafrost changes, and latent and sensible heat and potential and kinetic energy
in the atmosphere).
Writing
in Nature Climate Change, two scientists from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) say the melting of quite a small
volume of ice on the East Antarctic shore could ultimately trigger a discharge of ice into the
ocean which would result
in unstoppable sea - level rise for thousands of years ahead.
When it falls into the
ocean, it adds to the overall
volume of liquid
in the seas.
The latter is almost linearly related to changes
in ice sheet
volume; the former, however, is influenced by a range of factors, including atmosphere /
ocean dynamics and changes
in Earth's gravitational field, rotation, and crustal and the mantle deformation associated with the redistribution of mass between land ice and the
ocean.
My homemade Beach Waves Texturizing Spray uses the same minerals, salts and magnesium found
in ocean water that give hair such wonderful

The paper by Bryden reports on a particular calculation done to infer the
volume transport of the Atlantic
Ocean along 25N at five instances
in time (now granted this is expensive so we can not get to do many of these types of transects).
How large of a role has
ocean warming been playing
in the rapid loss of sea ice
volume there?
It seems to me that they must show deeper mixing than 50 M, since there is not enough mass
in the upper 50 meters of
ocean to account for the annual heat storage changes that are implied by observations for the the full integrated 700 meter
volume of
ocean.
One of the inputs into that discussion is the «PIOMAS» ice -
ocean model output of ice
volume — and
in particular, some high - profile extrapolations.
Why it is expected that this miniscule heat speculated as being distributed across the entire
ocean volume, would suddenly give up it's heat, thereby reappearing
in the global surface record.
However, atmospheric CO2 content plays an important internal feedback role.Orbital - scale variability
in CO2 concentrations over the last several hundred thousand years covaries (Figure 5.3) with variability
in proxy records including reconstructions of global ice
volume (Lisiecki and Raymo, 2005), climatic conditions
in central Asia (Prokopenko et al., 2006), tropical (Herbert et al., 2010) and Southern
Ocean SST (Pahnke et al., 2003; Lang and Wolff, 2011), Antarctic temperature (Parrenin et al., 2013), deep - ocean temperature (Elder eld et al., 2010), biogeochemical conditions in the Northet al., 2

ocean temperature (Elder eld et al., 2010), biogeochemical conditions

Combined with a large decline
in MY ice coverage over this short record, there is a reversal
in the volumetric and areal contributions of the two ice types to the total
volume and area of the Arctic
Ocean ice cover.
Warming of the
oceans leads to increased vertical stratification (decreased mixing between the different levels
in the
oceans), which would reduce CO2 uptake,
in effect, reducing the oceanic
volume available to CO2 absorption from the atmosphere.
The changes
in volume over a season also tell us how much ice is produced, how much heat is extracted from the
ocean, how much brine is injected into the
ocean as a result of ice growth and how much melt water is injected back into the
ocean.
Volume,
in contrast, is crucial
in determining the vulnerability of Arctic sea ice to rapid future reductions (since thin ice is much more prone to react strongly to a single warm summer, making single very - low sea - ice summers more likely), and the thickness of the ice determines the exchange of heat between
ocean and atmosphere.
