=Research Topic: How is Global Warming affecting our oceans?=

1. The article explains that due to **//global//** **//warming//**, the ice sheets of Greenland and Antarctica can potentially migrate into the sea, raising water levels globally. As **//global//** temperatures have increased, liquid water has built up below the ice sheets and could act as the lubrication that the ice sheets need to slip into the **//ocean//**. INSETS: World's Greatest Ice Sheets;Inundation from the Ice Sheets;THE BREAKUP OF LARSEN B;INTERNATIONAL POLAR YEAR. By: Bell, Robin E. . Scientific American, Feb2008, Vol. 298 Issue 2, p60-67 , 8p , 3 diagrams, 8 maps, 8c ; ( AN 28164791 )

2. The article focuses on the research on **//ocean//** circulation in a **//warming//** climate. Accordingly, findings show that the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) had stronger winds which fit to the common observation that it is windier in the winter than in the summer because there is greater thermal contrast within the atmosphere in the winter hemisphere. Moreover, the paper cited several observations that predict that **//oceans'//** circulation will weaken in response to **//global//** **//warming//**, but the **//warming//** at the end of the last ice age suggests a different outcome. However, by studying these observations, it is clear that large circulation changes took place and it seems unlikely that circulation changes of this magnitude could have happened without substantial changes in the wind forcing.

3. Atlantic hurricane activity has increased significantly since 1995 (refs 1–4), but the underlying causes of this increase remain uncertain. It is widely thought that rising Atlantic sea surface temperatures have had a role in this, but the magnitude of this contribution is not known. Here we quantify this contribution for storms that formed in the tropical North Atlantic, Caribbean Sea and Gulf of Mexico; these regions together account for most of the hurricanes that make landfall in the United States. We show that a statistical model based on two environmental variables—local sea surface temperature and an atmospheric wind field—can replicate a large proportion of the variance in tropical Atlantic hurricane frequency and activity between 1965 and 2005. We then remove the influence of the atmospheric wind field to assess the contribution of sea surface temperature. Our results indicate that the sensitivity of tropical Atlantic hurricane activity to August–September sea surface temperature over the period we consider is such that a 0.5 °C increase in sea surface temperature is associated with a ∼40% increase in hurricane frequency and activity. The results also indicate that local sea surface **//warming//** was responsible for ∼40% of the increase in hurricane activity relative to the 1950–2000 average between 1996 and 2005. Our analysis does not identify whether **//warming//** induced by greenhouse gases contributed to the increase in hurricane activity, but the ability of climate models to reproduce the observed relationship between hurricanes and sea surface temperature will serve as a useful means of assessing whether they are likely to provide reliable projections of future changes in Atlantic hurricane activity.

1. Question: How long is the Manhattan Bridge? Google, Dogpile, and yahoo worked good for me. They all provided the answer in the first links even though all three of them gave me thousands of different links.
