External Forcing Causes Multidecadal Co-variability in Southern Atlantic and Indian Oceans
Sea surface temperatures (SSTs) in the southern Atlantic and Indian Oceans (SAIOs) show prominent multidecadal variations, with notable impacts on rainfalls over Southern-Hemisphere continents. However, the origins of these variations remain uncertain.

Study Reveals Zinc Isotope Fractionation During Mid-ocean Ridge Basalt Differentiation
Zinc (Zn) isotope systematics has been a useful tool to study the planetary evolution and to trace carbon cycling in the Earth's mantle. However, zinc isotope data for mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB), the most widespread magmatic rocks on Earth, are scar...

Coral Records Changes of Kuroshio Current into South China Sea via Luzon Strait
The Kuroshio Current enters the South China Sea via the Luzon Strait and exerts significant effects on circulation and water mass properties of this marine basin. However, limited by the few on-site observations, multi-decadal variations in Luzon Strait...

Novel Bio-index Helps Indicate Future Arctic Climate Change through Microzooplankton
Planktonic ciliates (belonging to microzooplankton) are single-celled protozoa in the marine ecosystem, which are considered as bioindicators of various oceanographic conditions. The Arctic Ocean is experiencing rapid changes due to Global Warming, and ...

How Do Serpentinite-derived Fluids Oxidize Sub-arc Mantle?
Arc basalts typically have higher Fe3+/∑Fe ratios but lighter Fe isotopic compositions than mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORB), however, the reasons for these differences are unclear.
