Only further investigation will reveal how much of it makes its way from the river transport to the deep ocean, however, and how it might affect marine life, especially microbial communities that live in and feed on small organic particles.

Upper - ocean processes dissipate heat, transport nutrients and impact the uptake of carbon dioxide — making circulation a critical driver of biological activity in the ocean.

With glaciers thinning, accelerating and receding in response to ice shelf collapse [20, 21], more ice is directly transported into the oceans, making a direct contribution to sea level rise.

Looking suitably classy and cool, even on public transport — these are very much a higher class of criminal — the eight women who make up the gang are, from left to right, Sandra Bullock as Debbie Ocean (estranged sister of George Clooney's Danny Ocean); Cate Blanchett as Lou; Rihanna as Nine Ball; Mindy Kaling as Amita; Awkwafina as Constance; Helena Bonham Carter as Rose; Anne Hathaway as Daphne Kluger; and Sarah Paulson as Tammy.

Humans have used the sea as a livelihood, for transport and for its natural resources for thousands of years — however the modern era has seen us seriously damage the oceans that make up 71 % of our earth.

The eight computer generated photo - paintings located in the lower level of the gallery are a reflection of the invisible energy surrounding nature and inspired by drawings Mori made in front of the ocean back in her native Japan.The photo - paintings emitted a cosmic and atmospheric aura that made me feel as if I was transported into a distant serene galaxy.

Entitled Littoral Drift, a geologic term describing the action of wind - driven waves transporting sand and gravel, her current series consists of camera-less cyanotypes made in collaboration with the landscape and the ocean, at the edges of both.

Imagine a man or woman being so arrogant, and selfish, that they'd take a job driving a CO2 belching truck, or dig for coal in a mine, or fish for salmon in the ocean, or fly a CO2 belching airliner, or flip beef patties that came from CH4 exhausting cows, or teaching a classroom of students all of whom belch CO2 and exhaust CH4 and whom will have offspring that produces even more of those evil gases, or working as a climate scientist in an office heated by CO2 belching FFs and occasionally traveling around the world by CO2 belching airliner — all the while using computers made from FFs and powered by CO2 belching FF power plants, or working as a Senator from Tennessee who was President of the USA for a few hours and who travels all over the world in CO2 belching airliners, or one of the millions of people who mine, process, manufacture and transport every product you have ever seen in your life and all the ones you haven't seen as well.

Moreover, changes in models often affect climate simulations in ways that are understandable in physical, real - world terms; increasing an ocean - model's resolution, for example, makes the simulated Gulf Stream stronger, and thus enhances heat transport to the North Atlantic.

This ocean - to - land moisture transport leaves an imprint on sea surface salinity, making this «nature's rain gauge» to measure the variations of the water cycle.

I would assume that all that happens is that the transport of heat is changed in the model: if surface air temps in the model are too high compared to observations, more heat is made to go down into the ocean, and vice versa.

The key is accurately representing the large - scale ocean circulation and associated heat transport in the climate models used to make the decadal predictions.

I thought the idea was that an increase in the atmospheric radiative forcing from above would warm the skin layer a bit, reducing the temp gradient to the water layer below, thus impeding the transport of absorbed solar energy up and back out of the ocean, and thus making it pile up to increase OHC.

Why do they expend energy on this wasteful loss of energy and resources, obviously it is not an intelligent act, they have no brain, but rather it could be seen as a mechanism that evolved as - it - were by chance, a system that endures ad thus has shown that it works, by which they make the storms which interestingly whisk them up from the ocean and spread them worldwide... are they are simply «buying» a transport mechanism then?

Although the science of regional climate projections has progressed significantly since last IPCC report, slight displacement in circulation characteristics, systematic errors in energy / moisture transport, coarse representation of ocean currents / processes, crude parameterisation of sub-grid - and land surface processes, and overly simplified topography used in present - day climate models, make accurate and detailed analysis difficult.

For a comprehensive GCM I can count oceans, land, atmosphere, ice, biological processes, organic and inorganic chemical processes, human - made sources and other effects, radiative energy transport, conduction and convective heat transfer, phase change, clouds and aerosols, as some of the important system components, phenomena, and processes.
