Ocean circulation causes the largest freshening event for 120 years in eastern subpolar North Atlantic
NP Holliday, M Bersch, B Berx, L Chafik… - Nature …, 2020 - nature.com
Abstract The Atlantic Ocean overturning circulation is important to the climate system
because it carries heat and carbon northward, and from the surface to the deep ocean. The …
