Indian Ocean storing up heat from global warming, says study
2015-05-18 19:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The worlds oceans are playing a game of hot potato with the excess heat trapped by greenhouse gas emissions. Scientists have zeroed in on the tropical Pacific as a major player in taking up that heat. But while it might have held that heat for a bit, new research shows that the Pacific has passed the potato to the Indian Ocean, which has seen an unprecedented rise in heat content over the past decade. The new work builds on a series of papers that have tracked the causes for whats been dubbed...

Warming of Indian Ocean may weaken monsoon: Study
2014-10-02 18:40:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Times Of India: A recently published study says the Indian Ocean has been warming consistently for over a century and at a faster rate than any other region of tropical oceans - and this may weaken the monsoon. The study by scientists from Pune's Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Sorbonne University in Paris and Pune's Fergusson College found the warming of the Indian Ocean has been a major contributor to the total global sea surface warming, which may have long-term effects on the climate such...

Reuters: Marine scientists in the Seychelles are propagating and replanting corals resistant to bleaching in the hope of replacing destroyed reefs in the western Indian Ocean with ones that are more resilient. Each workday, Claude Reveret and Sarah Frias-Torres of Nature Seychelles, a not-for-profit environmental organisation, lead a team of scuba divers down to the ocean floor around Praslin, the country's second-largest island, and the nearby Cousin Island Special Reserve. There they take part in...

Scientists to launch bio robots in Indian Ocean to study its interior biology
2014-01-30 06:57:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Australias science agency has teamed up with its Indian counterpart to release bio robots into the Indian Ocean in order to revolutionise our knowledge of a marine environment upon which hundreds of million of people rely. There are already 3,600 so-called Argo floats free-floating sensors drifting around for a decade gathering data about the temperature and salinity of the ocean. But its just the physics, the CSIROs Dr Nick Hardman-Mountford told Guardian Australia. What we dont...
