Deep Ocean Currents More Dynamic Than Previously Thought

A new study reveals that deep-sea currents are far more dynamic than previously believed, contradicting existing models and suggesting that our understanding of sediment and pollutant transport needs a significant update. The research, published in Nature Geoscience, analyzed extensive data from an unprecedented array of sensors deployed off the coast of Mozambique, providing detailed insights into the speed and direction of currents near the seafloor.
