Chinese scientists describe 'inertial chimneys' in the ocean

Original: Chinese scientists describe inertial chimneys in the ocean — South China Morning Post

Chinese scientists have described what they call inertial chimneys in the ocean, structures that rapidly channel water downward and may play a role in heat and carbon transfer between the surface and the deep sea. The research, reported by the South China Morning Post, is drawing attention among oceanographers because it could refine understanding of how the ocean stores heat in a warming climate.

Why now: The newly described ocean structures could change how scientists understand vertical heat and carbon exchange in the sea.
