The physical properties of seawater include both 'thermodynamic properties' like density and freezing point, as well as 'transport properties' like the electrical conductivity and viscosity. Density ...

Researchers examined 21st century changes in ocean-surface temperature, salinity, and density, across mangrove forests worldwide. Their study suggests that changes in surface-ocean density may impact ...

It’s part of the scenario in “The Day After Tomorrow,” but scientists differ over whether or how fast it may occur. A team studying the current toils to bring clarity.

New research featured on Nature Climate Change reveals ocean fronts are places where different water masses meet, usually with changes in temperature, salinity, density, and major impacts on carbon ...
