🌊 Boosted stratification in the warming ocean will make quiescent regions more stagnant, while making eddying regions more turbulent.

@jgroceans.bsky.social we have been tackling bias for five years to bring top quality science that serves our diverse and global community doi.org/10.1029/2022...
🌊🌏🧪 How do you say ocean mixing in your first language(s)?
This week I was in Montreal for the annual AGU Publications retreat. We talked thru how we, the science community, would like AGU Journals to excel, for us, in the future! Our society journals are our journals. I never valued that more than I do now.
🌊🧪 At JGR-Oceans we put quality and integrity first, respecting author reputation, reviewer effort, and reader reward.
🌊🌏🧪🌀 The ocean is eddying more. Eddies are ocean weather systems. More eddies = more extremes in the ocean.
Lisa Beal@letstalkocean.bsky.social · 4mo agoI’ve led over 20 expeditions to the open ocean, chasing how currents are changing as our climate warms, only to find the answer lies at the smallest, most chaotic scales. Eddies are reshaping even the mightiest currents and bringing more extremes to coastal seas. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
🌊🌏🧪🌀 Eddies are like weather systems of the ocean. They carry important fluxes of heat and carbon. Even as part of the AMOC!

More eddying of subtropical western boundary currents boosts stratification and cools shelf seas - Nature Climate Change
This work shows that increased eddies accelerate surface warming in the Agulhas Current while also boosting hidden upwelling that cools the current, and adjacent shelf seas, at depth. Similar trends a...

🌊 My new paper with Kathryn Gunn comes out in Nature Climate Change tomorrow! We find that more eddying in the ocean is boosting hidden upwelling in western boundary currents, which is cooling and accelerating shelf-slope circulation and potentially straining coastal ecosystems.
🌊🌏🧪 @miamirosenstiel.bsky.social excellent new paper out by Rosenstiel colleagues on possible AMOC weakening. Could also reflect onshore shift of western boundary flow? www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Meridionally consistent decline in the observed western boundary contribution to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation
Western boundary observations in the Atlantic suggest a meridionally consistent decline in the ocean overturning circulation.

🌊🧪🌏 Let’s get nerdy-poetic about the ocean to start our week off right! I love that the ocean is full of contradictions. It is one and many, it is constant and forever changing, it is serene and wild, it is known and unknowable, it is vast and empty and full of life. It is ocean and it is Earth!
We have enough natural energy on this spinning planet to fuel humanity. The science, math, and tech turned out to be the easy part. Overcoming our fear and standing up to entrenched money and power have turned out to be way more difficult.
Beal Lab at #OSM26! We miss our colleague Dr Nate Dossa who could not come due to visa issues. Down with fear and division. Up with freedom of movement which supports science, society, and mutual understanding.
Are you at #OSM26? So are the JGR-Oceans editors! Catch us at the publishing workshop tomorrow or at the editor rapid reviews on Thursday.
