Abstract submission NOW OPEN! Deadline:1st September. 

Given the energy accumulation in the climate system under increased greenhouse forcing, why hasn't the Southern Ocean warmed?

A new ocean ‘reanalysis’ shows, although there are uncertainties over what might happen in the short term, the longer-term view is that a weakening of the circulation in the 21^st century is still very likely as a result of increasing greenhouse gases.

ICPO attended the workshop on Regional Oceanic Numerical Modeling and Observation organized by the NUIST on 30-31 May in Nanjing and gave a presentation on WCRP and CLIVAR.

June 8 is World Oceans Day, designed to remind everyone of the major role the oceans have in everyday life and to celebrate together the beauty, wealth and promise of the ocean.  This year’s theme is “Healthy oceans, healthy planet”, with special emphasis on stopping plastic pollution.
