“As the current slows down, it could impact the ocean’s ability to really absorb that extra heat and keep us protected, or keep us insulated from the impacts of global climate change.”

Great piece by @taimoorsohail.bsky.social et al in The Conversation about the findings of their latest paper that just got out at Environmental Research Letters (doi.org/10.1088/1748...) regarding the biggest ocean current of all. 🌊

Hear Dr @taimoorsohail.bsky.social discuss this important work on Australia's ABC Radio National. So good for people across our nation to hear about this finding and the risks associated - nice job Taimoor! 🌊

After many years of long discussions, our paper on the new inverse method we call the Optimal Transformation Method (OTM) is finally out!
With OTM, we can infer global ocean heat/freshwater transports, correct air-sea flux products, and more!

🚨New Paper!
Led by Joey Bisits, with @janzika.bsky.social, we explore the drivers of cabelling instability in the ocean using a first-of-its-kind turbulence-resolving simulation. See here for energy budgets, diffusion calcs and pretty pictures using Oceananigans: doi.org/10.1017/jfm....
Excited to have been given the opportunity to explain my research to a national audience on ABC Radio National Breakfast. The 5.30 AM wake up was worth it!
This 👇🏼 is open for another 6 days!

Not sure if this is for you?
Want to find more about the project?
Are you on the fence?
Do reach out..! 😊
We'll be using a new ocean model:
github.com/CliMA/Oceana...
github.com/CliMA/ClimaO...
and collaborate with CliMA (clima.caltech.edu).
Antarctic melt may slow the world's largest ocean current - "far-reaching impacts on global climate patterns, oceanic heat distribution, and marine ecosystems”.

Hello Bluesky! My new paper with Ryan Holmes is out now in JPO: using a new method to analyse time-varying processes' contributions to ocean heat transport. We found some interesting results associated with vertical mixing variability. Read it here: journals.ametsoc.org/view/journal...

Abstract. The geography of changes in the fluxes of heat, carbon, freshwater and other tracers at the sea surface is highly uncertain and is critical to our understanding of climate change and its imp...
Part of the system that pumps water, heat and nutrients around the globe is at risk. Climate change could slow the Antarctic Circumpolar Current down 20% by 2050.

The world's strongest ocean current could be about to slow down, as melting ice sheets see an influx of fresh water dumped into the Southern Ocean.

Exciting Postdoc Opportunity! 🌟🌊🌏
Research fellow position at University of Melbourne to study the ocean's role in climate variability. You'll be working with myself, @nicolamaher.bsky.social and @andyhogg.bsky.social and also interacting with the ocean team from CliMA.

New research out today with colleagues Bishakhdatta Gayen and Andreas Klocker projects that the world’s strongest current, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, may slow by 20% by 2050 in a high emissions future. So happy to have this out for the world to read!

Melting Antarctic ice is releasing cold, fresh water into the ocean, which is projected to cause the slowdown
