  • Abstract
    Pronounced changes in temperature, salinity (density) and upwelling have occurred in surface and deeper waters of the oceans, contributing with changing patterns and strength of winds to an alteration in ocean circulation. Together these changes have a potentially large impact through feedbacks on climate change.
