About this resource...

The earth’s climate produces large scales difference in temperature and salinity in the oceans.Water circulation patterns in the ocean are driven by temperature and salinity differences, which translate to water density differences. Water density decreases when the water molecules move apart due to increases in temperature. Water density increases when salt molecules take up places between water molecules. This project models the effect of global warming on thermohaline circulation.
