🚨Our new @natcomms.nature.com paper is out! 🤔Did you know that with a weaker #AMOC, tropical shallower waters got + oxygen in the last deglacial? Using benthic #forams, we explore how deep #AMOC influences Atlantic shallow circulation 🌊🐚🔬👩‍🚀 www.nature.com/articles/s41... @marumunibremen.bsky.social

This seems like it might be interesting. Can you explain it in layman’s terms?

It is! I will try 🧐 The ocean has different layers, each with diff. Temperature & salt content that results in density differences. These drive the thermohaline circulation that in turn drives the AMOC, a global circulation system that absorbs + redistributes carbon and heat from the atmosphere.
