Unabated Global Ocean Warming Revealed by Ocean Heat Content from Remote Sensing Reconstruction
Remote Sensing, 2023 As the most relevant indicator of global warming, the ocean heat content (OHC) change is tightly linked to the Earth’s energy imbalance. Therefore, it is vital to study the OHC and heat absorption and redistribution.

A warm jet in a cold ocean [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 AbstractUnprecedented quantities of heat are entering the Pacific sector of the Arctic Ocean through Bering Strait, particularly during summer months. Though some heat is lost to the atmosphere during autumn cooling, a significant fraction of the incoming warm, salty water subducts (dives beneath) below a cooler fresher layer of near-surface water ...

Satellite-observed strong subtropical ocean warming as an early signature of global warming
Communications Earth & Environment, 2023 Satellite observations covering the last four decades reveal an ocean warming pattern resembling the negative phase of the Pacific Decadal Oscillation. This pattern has therefore been widely interpreted as a manifestation of natural climate variability ...

Phosphate enrichment increases the resilience of the pulsating soft coral Xenia umbellata to warming
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Hard corals are in decline as a result of the simultaneous occurrence of global (e.g., ocean warming) and local (e.g., inorganic eutrophication) factors, facilitating phase shifts towards soft coral dominated reefs.

Ocean circulation in a warming climate [PDF]
Nature, 2008 Climate models predict that the ocean's circulation will weaken in response to global warming, but the warming at the end of the last ice age suggests a different outcome.

A Plea for Temperature in Descriptions of the Oceanic Oxygen Status [PDF]
Oceanography, 2014 For over 50 years, the ocean science community has traditionally reported hypoxic limits for marine animals simply as a concentration value independent of temperature and pressure, implying the same limit for the warmest shallow gulf or the coldest deep ...

Historical Changes in Wind‐Driven Ocean Circulation Can Accelerate Global Warming
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Mitigation and adaptation strategies for climate change depend on accurate climate projections for the coming decades. While changes in radiative heat fluxes are known to contribute to surface warming, changes to ocean circulation can also impact the ...

Arctic and Antarctic forcing of ocean interior warming during the last deglaciation
Scientific Reports, 2023 Subsurface water masses formed at high latitudes impact the latitudinal distribution of heat in the ocean. Yet uncertainty surrounding the timing of low-latitude warming during the last deglaciation (18–10 ka) means that controls on sub-surface ...

Nature Communications, 2021 Cooling of the global ocean below 2000 m counteracted some of the warming of the shallow ocean over much of the late 20th century. Here the authors show that this trend has shifted to warming, leading the deep ocean to absorb a meaningful fraction of ...

The Curious Case of Indian Ocean Warming*,+ [PDF]
Journal of Climate, 2014 Abstract Recent studies have pointed out an increased warming over the Indian Ocean warm pool (the central-eastern Indian Ocean characterized by sea surface temperatures greater than 28.0°C) during the past half-century, although the reasons behind this monotonous warming are still debated. The results here reveal a larger picture—namely,
