This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Imminent rapid decline of the Indonesian Throughflow after reaching a turning point of CO2 concentration" by Hu et al. (2025). This research article analyzes how rising carbon dioxide levels affect the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF), a vital oceanic link between the Pacific... Continue Reading →
Fingerprint Of Global Warming On Tropical Oceans Has Emerged In The Atlantic—While the Pacific Stays Cool
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Emergence of the enhanced equatorial Atlantic warming as a fingerprint of global warming” by Dong et al. (2025). Summary: This research identifies enhanced equatorial warming (EEW)—a pattern where sea surface temperatures near the equator rise faster than the surrounding tropics—as a... Continue Reading →
Rethinking the AMOC Variability: Why the Irminger Sea—Not the Labrador Sea—Is the True Center of Action
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Irminger Sea Is the Center of Action for Subpolar AMOC Variability” by Chafik et al. (2022). Summary: Chafik et al. (2022) identified the Irminger Sea as the primary "center of action" for driving fluctuations in the subpolar Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation... Continue Reading →
A Collapse Of The AMOC Would Drastically Alter Global Monsoons
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Impacts of AMOC Collapse on Monsoon Rainfall: A Multi‐Model Comparison” by Ben-Yami et al. (2024). Summary: Ben-Yami et al. (2024) analyzes how a potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) would drastically alter tropical monsoon rainfall patterns worldwide. By...

The Global Ocean Engine Is Shifting Gears
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Human-induced changes in the global meridional overturning circulation are emerging from the Southern Ocean” by Lee et al. (2023). For decades, the story of the ocean's circulation in a warming world seemed straightforward. We have a clear picture of the "Global... Continue Reading →
The Nordic Seas Overturning Circulation Is Set to Rebound After the 2040s
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Future strengthening of the Nordic Seas overturning circulation” by Årthun et al. (2023). When we talk about climate change and the ocean, one of the most prominent stories is the weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). This vast system... Continue Reading →
In Future Scenarios Where CO2 increases are Halted Sooner, the AMOC Gradually Recovers
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Noise-induced tipping of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation under climate mitigation scenarios” by Oh et al. (2025). It’s a hopeful and seemingly logical assumption: if humanity manages to stop increasing CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere, the climate system will gradually stabilize and...

More Than an Emission: How Rising Waste Heat Are Cooking North America
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Energy‐Consumption‐Induced Anthropogenic Heat Release Intensifies Heatwaves and Wildfire Threats in North America: A CESM2‐Based Projection for the Late 21st Century” by Wang et al. (2025). When we talk about climate change, the conversation almost invariably turns to greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide,... Continue Reading →
Why Rising Seas Could Lower a Hurricane’s Peak Surge—But Drown a Wider Area
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Combined impacts of hurricane strengthening and global mean sea level rise on future Atlantic storm surge events” by Danso et al. (2025). It’s a scenario that seems frighteningly straightforward: as climate change causes sea levels to rise and hurricanes to strengthen,... Continue Reading →
