Temperature and salinity control seawater's density. The weight of seawater determines whether it sinks or floats, helping to drive deep ocean circulation. At the sea surface, wind and waves move seawater — and the heat it carries — around our globe.
2 Δεκ 2019 · Global maps of sea-surface salinity are particularly helpful for studying the water cycle, ocean-atmosphere exchanges and ocean circulation, which are all vital components of the...
Salinity. NASA's salinity data help researchers understand deep ocean currents, the global water cycle, and climate change. Salinity, the amount of salt dissolved in seawater, drives ocean currents that transport heat around the globe. Variations in salinity are negligible when considering global mean sea level (GMSL); however, salinity can be ...
26 Απρ 2021 · These plots show that our salinity change results are consistent with the link described in 6 between the rate of amplification, (fresh gets fresher - saline gets saltier) and temperature.
20 Μαρ 2024 · Explore the latest sea surface salinity satellite data record from the ESA Climate Change Initiative. Version 04.41 integrates measurements from ESA’s SMOS, and NASA's Aquarius and SMAP missions, covering 2010-2022.
8 Μαΐ 2023 · A view of sea surface temperature (SST) data for the past two and a half years, updated daily with the latest available data. This version uses a Robinson projection and includes a diagonal line pattern marking regions where the temperature is above 82°F.
