The decrease in ocean heat transport in response to global warming

J. V. Mecking and S. S. Drijfhout

Explore how global warming is reshaping ocean heat transport, as revealed by the latest climate projections by Jennifer V. Mecking and Sybren S. Drijfhout. Their study uncovers a concerning trend of decreasing poleward ocean heat transport, particularly pronounced in the Atlantic and Indo-Pacific Oceans, driven by changes in overturning circulation and upper ocean warming.
