Expedition Identifies Flaws In Southern Ocean Climate Models

A research expedition reports that current climate models misrepresent key processes in the Southern Ocean, the vast circumpolar waters that absorb much of the world's excess heat and carbon. The findings suggest projections of ocean heat uptake and climate change may carry significant errors. Scientists say better observations are needed to correct the models.

Why now: New field findings challenge the accuracy of global climate projections, drawing attention from scientists and the public.
