These currents also transport vital nutrients that support phytoplankton blooms, which are the foundation of the marine food web. The book examines the historical development of oceanographic science and presents complex concepts with supporting visuals and real-world examples. It progresses from introducing fundamental concepts like the Coriolis effect and thermohaline circulation to focusing on specific current systems like the Gulf Stream and the Humboldt Current.
The book emphasizes the interconnectedness of ocean currents and discusses the potential consequences of disrupted current patterns due to climate change, also proposing strategies for mitigating these risks.
