A new study assesses the ocean and atmosphere’s influence on sea surface temperature changes on a decadal scale, revealing ocean currents as the predominant driver in mid- to high-latitudes and highlighting their crucial role in shaping long-term climate patterns.
It is well known that within the Maritime Continent, a meteorological term for the region between the Indian and Pacific Oceans, enhanced water mixing processes from tides cause colder sea surface temperatures. An important question is exactly how much this process contributes to broader ocean and climate conditions. A new study, supported by the Climate
