Ocean Encounters: Restless Seas

How do ocean currents shape weather, climate, and life?
Even on the calmest day, the ocean is constantly in motion. From powerful ocean currents to the smallest eddy, moving seawater is a key driver of the Earth system, distributing heat, nutrients, and carbon-sustaining life at every scale and shaping weather and climate around the globe.
Join three WHOI scientists for a discussion about ocean currents, how they are changing, and the implications for marine life and all of us.
