"The Caribbean's Salty Impact on Climate"

Researchers have found that the distribution of salt by ocean currents, particularly from the Caribbean, plays a crucial role in regulating the global climate. By studying natural climate anomalies like the Little Ice Age, they discovered that changes in salt movement to high northern latitudes can amplify and prolong cold climate events in the subpolar North Atlantic and Europe. The study confirms that the south-north transport of salt is a key factor in climate processes, affecting ocean circulation and ultimately influencing temperatures in Europe and North America.
