| Abstract: | Rising global temperatures over the past two decades, anthropogenic in origin or otherwise, have led to increasing sea temperatures and sparked fears about unpredictable sea behaviour. While sea level rises would put stress on population centres, any change is likely to be gradual and hence manageable. More devastating changes may arise from the way in which ocean circulations change with a warming climate, how changing sea surface temperatures affect weather systems, and how atmospheric feedback cycles between oceans and atmosphere may alter. |
