Global surface currents 2005-2007 C016 / 8118
Global surface currents 2005-2007. Computer visualisation showing ocean surface currents around North and Central America, centred on the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, during the period from June 2005 to December 2007. The main current system operating in this area is known as the Gulf Stream (dense, white, upper centre). This visualisation was produced using model output from the joint MIT/JPL project: Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean, Phase II (ECCO2). ECCO2 uses the MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) general circulation model (MITgcm) to synthesise satellite and in-situ data of the global ocean and sea-ice at resolutions that begin to resolve ocean eddies and other narrow current systems, which transport heat and

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Global surface currents 2005-2007 C016 / 8118" offers a mesmerizing computer visualization of the ocean's surface currents around North and Central America. The image, centered on the Caribbean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, showcases the intricate movements of water during the period from June 2005 to December 2007. The dominant current system in this region, known as the Gulf Stream, is depicted as a dense white flow located at the upper center of the artwork. Created using model output from MIT/JPL's project called Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO2), this visual representation combines satellite and in-situ data to provide a comprehensive understanding of global oceanic patterns. By utilizing MITgcm, an advanced general circulation model developed by Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), ECCO2 successfully captures even narrow current systems like ocean eddies. These intricate currents play a crucial role in transporting heat and regulating climate across continents. This stunning illustration not only highlights Earth's dynamic hydrological processes but also emphasizes our planet's interconnectedness through its vast oceans. It serves as a powerful reminder that studying these complex systems is essential for comprehending Earth's environmental dynamics in order to make informed decisions about our planet's future. This remarkable piece was produced by NASA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY and represents an extraordinary fusion between artistry and scientific exploration.
