Warm seawater encroaches on major Antarctic ice shelf, raising sea level concerns

The vast Antarctic Ice Sheet holds more than half of Earth's freshwater. In several places around the continent, the ice extends over the ocean, where it forms large floating shelves. Observations suggest many of these ice shelves are thinning as they melt from below, with implications for ocean dynamics, global sea level, and Earth's climate.

Hurricanes found to push warm water deep into ocean, impacting climate in distant locales

A team of oceanographers at the University of California's Scripps Institution of Oceanography, working with one colleague from Brandeis University and two from Oregon State University, has found evidence of typhoons/hurricanes pushing warm water deep into the ocean, where it is carried to distant places. In their research, reported in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the group studied ocean conditions before and after three typhoons over parts of the Philippine Sea.
