How salt from the Caribbean affects our climate

Past cold periods such as the Little Ice Age were associated with reduced strength of North Atlantic currents and increased surface salinity in the Caribbean. This was accompanied by disturbances in the distribution of salt to the north leading to longer, stronger cooling phases in the northern hemisphere. Researchers from the Canadian Dalhousie University, GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel, Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Centre for Polar and Marine Research and MARUM - Center for Marine Environmental Sciences at the University of Bremen have proven this connection. They have now published their research results in the journal Science Advances. The study supports the hypothesis that salt transfer through ocean currents is a crucial regulator of global climate.
