The warmer the ocean surface, the shallower the mixed layer. How much of this is true?

Ocean surface warming is commonly associated with a more stratified, less productive, and less oxygenated ocean. Such an assertion is mainly based on consistent...

Atmospheric Control of Deep Chlorophyll Maximum Development

The evolution of the near-surface phytoplankton bloom towards a Deep Chlorophyll Maximum (DCM) in mid-latitudes and subpolar regions of the global ocean is a...

Three decades of continuous ocean observations in North Atlantic Spanish waters: The RADIALES time series project, context, achievements and challenges

Ship-based time-series observations provide crucial data for understanding marine ecosystems, improving decision making in ocean and coastal management. However, only a few time series...

Acoustic Observations Unveil Seasonal Fluctuations and Regulation of Zooplankton Biomass and Its Vertical Distribution at a Mid‐Latitude Long‐Term Ocean Observatory

Zooplankton play a crucial role in marine ecosystems, serving as primary consumers and vital components of the marine food web. Studying the temporal dynamics...

A decade-long flow reversal in the intergyre region of the eastern north Atlantic

Two hydrographical shifts observed within the last two decades around north/northwestern Iberia, in the mid-latitudes of the eastern North Atlantic, reveal a contrasting behaviour...

Observed Climatic Variability of Global Ocean Stratification

The ocean accumulates 93% of the energy in the Earth system, making it the primary regulator of climate. Besides, the global ocean not only...
