Air pollution is rarely linked to water pollution, but the strong links will soon be obvious, just as the surface air movement is
influenced by the ocean currents and the temperatures of both.

As the
ocean conditions are ever changing and the waves are
influenced by swells, winds and
currents, I suggest checking with the life guards at any county or state beach park during your visit.
Climate in Peru: Peru has a temperate climate along the coast which is
influenced by a cold
ocean current called the Humboldt.
re inline comment on 24, What I noted was that the
ocean skin equilibrium referenced in RC 5 Sept 06 could be
influenced by variations in
ocean currents and the cryosphere to affect atmospheric temperature on the scale of decades.
The conditions also bolster the views of ice and climate specialists who have stressed that the many factors shaping Arctic conditions year
by year, from winds and atmospheric pressure to highly variable
ocean currents and soot, still dominate the
influence of heat trapped
by building greenhouse gases.

Other studies show good correlation with
ocean currents, which may or may not be
influenced by solar variations.
New research
by Misra and Mishra in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres shows that differences in the
ocean bathymetry (or topography) of two novel numerical climate model integrations can
influence the
ocean currents and their impact on regional climate.
Roemmich et al (2007) suggest that mid-latitude gyres in all of the
oceans are
influenced by decadal variability in the Southern and Northern Annular Modes (SAM and NAM respectively) as wind driven
currents in baroclinic
oceans (Sverdrup, 1947).
Now for sea ice, this type of ice is
influenced by year - to - year changes in wind directions and changes in
ocean currents.
The arid conditions found along the western coasts of continents in subtropical latitudes are further enhanced
by the
influence of the equatorward surface air flow on the
ocean currents.
Climate change is indeed expected to
influence certain major
ocean currents, in part
by affecting the winds and other atmospheric patterns that help to drive the movement of the seas.
A change in
ocean heat content can also alter patterns of
ocean circulation, which can have far - reaching effects on global climate conditions, including changes to the outcome and pattern of meteorological events such as tropical storms, and also temperatures in the northern Atlantic region, which are strongly
influenced by currents that may be substantially reduced with CO2 increase in the atmosphere.
Lansner and Pepke Pedersen (2018) point out that, due to the divergent rates of warming and cooling for land vs.
ocean water, there is a significant difference in the range of temperature for the regions of the world
influenced by their close proximity to
oceans and coastal wind
currents (
ocean air affected, or OAA) and the inland regions of the world that are unaffected
by ocean air effects and coastal wind because they are sheltered
by hills and mountains or located in valleys (
ocean air sheltered, or OAS).
I think it is time for a general update due to subsequent developments (especially the
current 2 year global cooling trend and a quieter sun with cooling
oceans after an 8 year temperature plateau which tends to show that my point about solar and oceanic
influences on global temperatures has some merit) and the fact that I can make the essential points more simply
by condensing them into a series of bullet points as follows:
