Fluctuations in ocean currents can affect the Earth's climate

The Vietnam News Agency reporter in New York said the results of the California Institute of Technology (USA) report that changes in ocean currents in the Atlantic Ocean could be responsible for the Earth's climate.

Based on the analysis of sediments in the Gulf ocean currents flowing into the North Atlantic Ocean, that is, the Florida Strait, the scientists simulated the changes that occurred to the ocean currents over the past 1,000 years.

The study results show that this ocean current temperature has decreased by 10% during the period from 1200 to 1850, the period of unusual cold weather in the North Atlantic region. This demonstrates that the temperature of the hot ocean current plays an important role in regulating the climate of the North Atlantic region.

The scientific community also identified that the study of ocean currents could help predict the future climate situation of the Earth.
