Increasing model resolution improves but overestimates global mid-depth circulation simulation

open access: yesScientific Reports
Increasing the spatial resolution in climate models has significantly improved the simulation of global upper-layer ocean circulation. However, the ability of high-resolution models to accurately reproduce mid-depth circulation, in terms of strength and ...

Preliminary Insights into the Seasonal Variation, Phylogenetic Diversity, and Biofilm-Forming Capacity of Cultivable Vibrionaceae in Coastal Biofilms of Qingdao, China

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Biofilm formation enables marine Vibrionaceae spp. to survive and adapt in dynamic coastal environments, yet their seasonal and substrate-related biofilm dynamics remain poorly understood. Our study investigated the seasonal distribution, biofilm-forming

Mining of the Deep Ocean

open access: yesAnnual Review of Environment and Resources
Expanding demand for precious, rare earth, and other minerals has reinvigorated interest in mining the deep abyssal seafloor for polymetallic (manganese or ferromanganese) nodules, hydrothermal vents for polymetallic sulfides, and seamounts for cobalt-rich crusts, raising questions regarding the environmental sustainability of such activities.

Future Slower Reduction of Anthropogenic Aerosols Enhances Extratropical Ocean Surface Warming Trends

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
Global surface temperature short‐term trends fluctuate between cooling and fast‐warming under the combined action of external forcing and internal variability, significantly influencing the detectability of near‐term climate change. A key driver of these

Human-induced intensified seasonal cycle of sea surface temperature

open access: yesNature Communications
Changes in the seasonal cycle of sea surface temperature (SST) have far-reaching ecological and societal implications. Previous studies have found an intensified SST seasonal cycle under global warming, but whether such changes have emerged in historical

Changes in shelf waters due to air-sea fluxes and their influence on the Arctic Ocean circulation as simulated in the OCCAM global ocean model

open access: yes, 2005
In this study we look at the ocean circulation of the Arctic Ocean in the high-resolution OCCAM global ocean model. The Arctic Ocean consists of deep basins surrounded by a large area of continental shelves, where cooling and ice formation play an ...

Significance of Atlantic sea surface temperature anomalies to Arctic sea ice variability revealed by deep learning

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science
Arctic sea ice has undergone dramatic changes over the past four decades, leading to far-reaching climate impacts. Anomalous sea surface temperature (SST) in the extra-polar oceans is recognized as one of the principal drivers of Arctic sea ice ...
