What lies beneath? Bringing the deep ocean into focus

What lies beneath? Bringing the deep ocean into focus This topic is the focus of a new project called Capturing Oceanic Submesoscales, Stirring and Mixing with Sound and Simulations (COSSMoSS). COSSMoSS aims to capture yet unresolved ocean flows using observations from sound reflections, alongside new model simulations. The project is based in the Brazil-Malvinas Confluence, a key region of inter-ocean-basin exchange in the SW Atlantic. COSSMoSS hopes to improve our understanding of how the ocean distributes heat, salt, oxygen, carbon and nutrients, key for mediating climate and sustaining life.
