Editorial Staff · 1 min read

Researchers from MARUM at the University of Bremen have conducted a study revealing that Southern Hemisphere waters have played a dominant role in the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) for the past 800,000 years.

This research provides insights into the hemispheric origins of the ITF, suggesting a substantial Southern Hemispheric influence over millennia.

The findings contribute to our understanding of oceanic currents and their historical impacts on climate and marine ecosystems.
