The IPCC calls this a “robust acceleration ( high confidence ) of global mean sea level rise over the 20th century”, as did the SROCC in 2019. That’s because huge ice sheets take a long time to melt in a warmer climate, and the ocean waters take a long time to warm up as you go further down, away from the surface.

There is no doubt that we have changed Earth’s climate through our activities on a broad range of aspects that includes consequences for the atmosphere, the oceans, snow, ice, Earth’s fauna and ecosystems. CO 2 also has an additional effect: it makes the oceans more acidic when dissolved in seawater. mm increase every year.

Ocean scientists and naturalists such as David Attenborough are keen to remind us often of the demise of the Great Barrier Reef and other coral reefs. Audrey Azoulay, Director-General of UNESCO added: “To date, we know the surface of the moon better than the deep ocean. By Anders Lorenzen. It was like a work of art”.

The nice thing about this DAS technology is that it’s very, very difficult to get a traditional ocean-bottom seismometer or even hydrophones running in the Arctic environment. But now, instead of having a few ocean-bottom seismometers for a short period, we have 20,000 channels of seismic data. We hear ocean dynamics as well.

Coast Guard icebreaker Healy will travel from the Bering Sea off the coast of Alaska through Arctic waters to the northern Atlantic Ocean. In the past, the Arctic Ocean–and the Northwest Passage in particular—was often choked with thick sea ice that made maritime voyages risky and arduous, even at the most favorable times of the year.
