Ocean floor found to strongly influence global climate

Original: Earth’s ocean floor has a surprisingly powerful effect on climate

New reporting highlights that Earth's ocean floor plays a far larger role in regulating the climate than previously understood. The seafloor influences how heat and carbon are stored and exchanged between the ocean and the atmosphere, processes that are central to climate models and projections. Coverage on multiple outlets is drawing attention to how much of the planet's climate machinery sits beneath the waves, largely out of sight.

Why now: Recent coverage of new findings about the ocean floor's role in climate regulation is drawing reader interest.
