Costa and her colleagues wanted to find out if the dusty atmosphere also stimulated CO2 sequestration
in other ocean basins during the past ice age.
So the challenge is to try to resolve that evidence with the ocean heat data that shows that the energy is going
into other ocean basins.
«Once the Bering Strait opened and the equatorial Pacific cooled during the Ice Age, modernised marine mammals were able to migrate
from other ocean basins into the North Pacific, leading to the mix we see today,» he says.
«Nevertheless, neither data set supports the model result of Meehl et al. that the heat uptake in this layer (300 - 700m) in the Pacific dominates over
other ocean basins during hiatus periods.»
But whether or not those warm oceans meant an El Niño was in place, they, along with warm waters
in other ocean basins, helped elevate global surface temperatures in 2014, leading to the warmest year on record.
G: The Atlantic has had more of these storms in the least 10 years or so, but in
other ocean basins, activity is slightly down.
Other ocean basins have also seen changes to their seasons.
«Essentially,» he said, «the Atlantic exhibits these weird multidecadal [i.e., decades - long] fluctuations over the 20th century that you don't see in
other ocean basins.»
Finds, however, in most of
the other ocean basins, the surface waters will still be saturated with respect to calcite, but at a level greatly reduced from the present
Understand how AMOC variability interacts with other components of the Earth system — its climate, hydrologic cycle, atmospheric circulation, coupled phenomena (e.g., ENSO, monsoons),
other ocean basins (e.g., Southern Ocean), cryosphere, sea level, marine and terrestrial ecosystems, biogeochemical cycles, and carbon budgets.
Tisdale's animations suggest a progression of an ENSO state (NINO3.4 + / --RRB- to
other ocean basins.
The relevant factor may therefore not be how warm the water is in a given ocean basin, but how warm it is relative to
other ocean basins.
Recent research suggests, however, that the relevant factor may not be how warm a given ocean is, but how warm it is relative to
other ocean basins.
States that a significant increase in salinity has been observed in recent decades in the 20N — 50N latitude band of the Atlantic ocean, although changes at sub ‐ polar latitudes of the Atlantic, and in
other ocean basins, are not found to be significant compared to modeled internal variability
