[ScienceD] Arctic ice sets speed limit for major ocean current - Science Daily - 2018-10-28 Arctic ice sets speed limit for major ocean current Scientists have now identified a key mechanism, which they call the 'ice-ocean governor,' that controls how fast the Beaufort Gyre spins and how much fresh water it stores. Researchers report that the Arctic's ice cover essentially sets a speed limit on the gyre's spin. http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/top_news/top_science/~3/BOV6wTID0_s/181017140925.htm |
