Sardines thrived here, feeding on the rich blooms of plankton fertilized by nutrients carried along by
rising deep ocean waters.

As these winds enhance
ocean circulation, they may be encouraging carbon - rich
waters to
rise from the
deep, say the team, meaning that surface
water is less able to absorb CO2 from the atmosphere.
Driven by stronger winds resulting from climate change,
ocean waters in the Southern Ocean are mixing more powerfully, so that relatively warm deep water rises to the surface and eats away at the underside of the
ocean waters in the Southern
Ocean are mixing more powerfully, so that relatively warm deep water rises to the surface and eats away at the underside of the
Ocean are mixing more powerfully, so that relatively warm
deep water rises to the surface and eats away at the underside of the ice.
The
rising temperatures cause layers of
ocean water to stratify so the more oxygen - rich surface
waters are less able to mix with oxygen - poor
waters from the
deeper ocean.
Today, cold
water sinks near the Arctic and flows
deep below the surface of the Atlantic toward the southern
oceans, where it
rises up.
At the edge of the Pacific continental shelf,
deeper, nutrient - rich
waters rise to the
ocean's surface.
El Nino's mass of warm
water puts a lid on the normal currents of cold,
deep water that typically
rise to the surface along the equator and off the coast of Chile and Peru, said Stephanie Uz,
ocean scientist at Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.
However, when temperatures warm over the Antarctic regions,
deep waters rise from the floor of the
ocean much closer to the continent.
A new study found that vulnerability of
deep - sea biodiversity to climate change's triple threat —
rising water temperatures, and decreased oxygen, and pH levels — is not uniform across the world's
oceans.
That means it sinks into the
deeper layers of the
ocean, and the contrast between this warm
water and the undersea ice canyons contributes an unknown but substantial amount of sea level
rise, said Josh Willis, an oceanographer at JPL in Pasadena, California.
Because existing phenomena — such as thermal expansion of
water from warming — do not fully explain the corrected sea - level -
rise number of 3.3 millimeters, stored heat in the
deep ocean may be making a significant contribution, Cazenave said.
The method consists of supplying bubbles of compressed air from a perforated pipe lowered in the
water, which then
rise, taking with them colder
water from
deeper in the
ocean.
During normal conditions, trade winds blow to the west across the tropical Pacific
Ocean, piling up warm surface
water in the western Pacific, and cold,
deeper water rises up, or upwells, off the west coast of South America.
Upwelling — or
deep ocean water rising to the surface following north winds off the Washington coast — was carrying acidic
water to the surface.
In addition, seamounts
rising into the
ocean create obstacles that shape
ocean currents and direct
deep, nutrient - rich
waters up the sloping sides of seamounts to the surface.
Coasteering is a unique blend of wild swimming,
deep water jumps, negotiating sluices, tackling whirlpools and beating the
rise & fall of the
ocean.

It's always worth remembering that the other end of the AMOC involves two main factors: (1) vorticity - mixing of heat from surface
waters into the
deep abyssal ocean (which decreases density causing the Atlantic Deep Water to start rising above the colder Antarctic Bottom Water) and (2) the wind - driven upwelling around the Antarctic Circumpolar Curr
deep abyssal
ocean (which decreases density causing the Atlantic
Deep Water to start rising above the colder Antarctic Bottom Water) and (2) the wind - driven upwelling around the Antarctic Circumpolar Curr
Deep Water to start
rising above the colder Antarctic Bottom
Water) and (2) the wind - driven upwelling around the Antarctic Circumpolar Current.
The warmer the
ocean becomes, the less
water rises from
deeper down, meaning fewer resources will be brought to the surface
water where phytoplankton live.
upwelling wind blows, moves
water away, causes new
water to
rise up to replace it brings up tiny
ocean organisms, minerals, and other nutrients from the
deeper layers of the
water.
The
deep waters, being warmer than such surface
waters,
rise to the surface, as the upper layers sink slowly into the dark
ocean depths.
Either this is a truism (the sun must be heating the
ocean surface first) or it is meant to take into account the complex circulations that occur in the
ocean, like the Gulf Stream's involvement in a vertical
rise of
waters from
deep ocean layers in one region and sinking of the cooled surface
waters as the stream reaches its northern limit.
A slight change of
ocean temperature (after a delay caused by the high specific heat of
water, the annual mixing of thermocline
waters with
deeper waters in storms) ensures that
rising CO2 reduces infrared absorbing H2O vapour while slightly increasing cloud cover (thus Earth's albedo), as evidenced by the fact that the NOAA data from 1948 - 2008 shows a fall in global humidity (not the positive feedback
rise presumed by NASA's models!)
It is not that heat enters the
oceans which could reduce an increase in GMST, it is that colder
deeper water must
rise to the surface if warmer surface
waters are being pushed downwards.
Of course, if the air were to be warmer than the
ocean surface then evaporation would take the extra energy required from the air rather than the
water and that 1 mm
deep layer (0.3 C cooler than the
ocean bulk) would
rise to the surface and dissipate but that doesn't happen often or for long.
The effects of this marked shift in westerly winds are already being seen today, triggering warm and salty
water to be drawn up from the
deep ocean, melting large sections of the Antarctic ice sheet with unknown consequences for future sea level
rise while the ability of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current to soak up heat and carbon from the atmosphere remains deeply uncertain.
Purkey, S. G. & Johnson, G. C. Warming of global abyssal and
deep southern
ocean waters between the 1990s and 2000s: Contributions to global heat and sea level
rise budgets.
Since it takes several hundred years for the
deep ocean water to cycle up to the top, where it can be warmed up and lose CO2, it makes sense to suppose that if a warming event is initiated by something else (like changes in the amount and spatial distribution of incoming solar radiation,) the concomitant
rise in atmospheric CO2 (which would enhance the initial warming) might lag behind by several hundred years.
The warming of the surface of the
ocean is thought to increase stratification within the
water column, preventing the nutrients in the cool
deep ocean from
rising to the surface.
The warm
water evaporates from the
ocean surface, and the light, warm and humid air
rises, leading to
deep convection in the form of towering cumulonimbus clouds and heavy precipitation.
(By the way, neither has sea - level
rise due to thermal expansion, because the thermal expansion coefficient is several times larger for warm surface
waters than for the cold
deep waters — again it is warming in the surface layers that counts, while the total
ocean heat content tells us little about the amount of sea - level
rise.)
They explain the lesser warming in the East Pacific
Ocean, near South America, as being due to the fact this region is kept cool by upwelling,
rising of
deeper colder
water to shallower depths.
