Vibrant Simulation Shows Complexity of Ocean Circulation and Heat Transfer
2015-04-02 19:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: This swirling, vibrant visualization of global water-surface temperatures from Los Alamos National Laboratory depicts the complexity of ocean circulation and heat absorption. Cool temperatures appear as blues and greens while warmer waters are red and yellow. A clear temperature divide exists between waters in the Northern Hemisphere and those in the Southern Hemisphere. Researchers say that oceans south of the equator have absorbed substantially more heat over the past decade. Vortices near the...

New England takes on ocean pollution
2015-03-30 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: A group of state legislators in New England want to form a multi-state pact to counter increasing ocean acidity along the East Coast, a problem they believe will endanger multi-million dollar fishing industries if left unchecked. The legislators' effort faces numerous hurdles: They are in the early stages of fostering cooperation between many layers of government, hope to push for potentially expensive research and mitigation projects, and want to use state laws to tackle a problem scientists...

Melting ice slows down ocean circulation
2015-03-29 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Living on Earth: The Atlantic Conveyor Belt is a system of ocean currents that bring warm temperatures and important nutrients to the waters off of East Coast America and Western Europe. But as global warming melts ice in Greenland, the influx of fresh water seems to be slowing the northward drift down and could shut the system down altogether. Climate scientist Michael Mann tells host Steve Curwood that could spell trouble for the ocean and the economy. Transcript CURWOOD: It's Living on Earth. I'm Steve Curwood....

A mile deep, ocean fish facing health impacts from human pollution
2015-03-25 11:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld
[NEWS] CORVALLIS, Ore. - Deep-water marine fish living on the continental slopes at depths from 2,000 feet to one mile have liver pathologies, tumors and other health problems that may be linked to human-caused pollution, one of the first studies of its type has found. The research, conducted in the Bay of Biscay west of France, also discovered the first case of a deep water fish species with an “intersex” condition, a blend of male and female sex organs. The sampling w…
