The SOFIA project investigates how heat is exchanged between the atmosphere and the Southern Ocean, focusing on the role of storms and ocean currents in this process. By using advanced modeling and new satellite data, it aims to enhance understanding of ocean heat uptake and its implications for climate change.
Climate mitigation relies on accurate knowledge of Earth’s energy distribution, which informs us about the extent, rate, and locations of climate warming.
Historically, the ocean has played a dominant role, absorbing 93% of the excess heat generated by human activities through the air-sea interface.
Ocean heat content trends obtained from sparse observations show the Southern Ocean dominates this heat uptake.
Climate models confirm this, indicating the Southern Ocean accounts for 75–83% of the g…
