Home | Dottorato e Master | Oceans and climate

The course delves into the intricate relationship between ocean and the global climate system. Participants will explore the multifaceted interactions between oceanic processes and climate dynamics, gaining insights into how ocean influence climate patterns and vice versa. Through a combination of theoretical knowledge and empirical evidence, learners will examine key topics such as ocean-atmosphere interactions, ocean circulation patterns, and the role of oceans in regulating Earth's temperature and weather systems. Additionally, the course will address the impacts of climate change on oceans, including sea level rise, ocean acidification, and shifts in marine ecosystems. By understanding the complex interplay between oceans and climate, participants will gain a deeper appreciation of the profound influence that oceans have on shaping the planet's climate and the implications for future climate scenarios.
