A cooling shift: Slowing ocean circulation may temper Arctic temperature rise

A cooling shift: Slowing ocean circulation may temper Arctic temperature rise

The Arctic is warming at three to four times the global average. However, new research suggests the slowing of a key ocean current could reduce projected Arctic warming by up to 2 degrees Celsius by the end of the century.

Saturday Citations: Reading comprehension; revisiting tardigrade orthodoxy; restoring universal symmetry

This week, physicists suggested that quantum entanglement may be really, really fast rather than instantaneous, and could be measured at an attosecond scale. Paleontologists discovered a fossilized mammal in Colorado that may have lived alongside dinosaurs in the Late Cretaceous. And scientists with the U.S. Geologic Survey reported that up to 95 million people may be relying on drinking water contaminated with PFAS chemicals.

Melting Arctic sea-ice could affect global ocean circulation, study warns

The warming climate in polar regions may significantly disrupt ocean circulation patterns, a new study indicates. Scientists discovered that in the distant past, growing inflows of freshwater from melting Arctic sea-ice into the Nordic Seas likely significantly affected ocean circulation, sending temperatures plummeting across northern Europe.
