Abstract

This compilation of studies underscores the multifaceted role of ocean currents in Earth’s systems. Research examines their responses to climate change, including shifts in major currents like the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and the AMOC, and their impact on heat and nutrient transport. Mesoscale eddies influence phytoplankton dynamics, while the Indonesian Throughflow connects ocean basins. Tropical cyclones affect upper ocean heat content, and currents are vital for larval dispersal and plastic debris accumulation. Deep ocean circulation and Antarctic Bottom Water formation are critical for global heat redistribution and carbon sequestration. Collectively, these findings highlight the interconnectedness of oceanographic processes and their implications for climate regulation, marine ecosystems, and human activities.

Keywords: Ocean Currents; Climate Change; Southern Ocean; North Atlantic; Phytoplankton; Indonesian Throughflow; Tropical Cyclones; AMOC; Larval Dispersal; Plastic Pollution; Deep Ocean Circulation; Antarctic Bottom Water
