The Global Meridional Overturning Circulation (GMOC) is a global ocean circulation which redistributes heat, freshwater and nutrients around the globe. It plays an important role in climate, biogeochemical cycling and marine ecosystems. This thesis investigates the effect of Antarctic meltwater runoff in the Southern Ocean on the Meridional Overturning Circulation in the Atlantic basin with a global ocean model, the Nucleus for European Modelling of the Ocean (NEMO). We find a weakening of the Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) circulation and an increase in the North Atlantic Deep water circulation. Moreover, we find that the abyssal ocean is warming. Lastly, we find important sea surface temperature and sea surface salinity signals in the North Atlantic, North Pacific and the El Niño region.

What is life? What is water? What is sound? In Sounding the Limits of Life, anthropologist Stefan Helmreich investigates how contemporary scientists-biologists, oceanographers, and audio engineers-are redefining these crucial concepts. Life, water, and sound are phenomena at once empirical and abstract, material and formal, scientific and social. In the age of synthetic biology, rising sea levels, and new technologies of listening, these phenomena stretch toward their conceptual snapping points, breaching the boundaries between the natural, cultural, and virtual.Through examinations of the computational life sciences, marine biology, astrobiology, acoustics, and more, Helmreich follows scientists to the limits of these categories. Along the way, he offers critical accounts of such other-than-human entities as digital life forms, microbes, coral reefs, whales, seawater, extraterrestrials, tsunamis, seashells, and bionic cochlea. He develops a new notion of "sounding"-as investigating, fathoming, listening-to describe the form of inquiry appropriate for tracking meanings and practices of the biological, aquatic, and sonic in a time of global change and climate crisis.Sounding the Limits of Life shows that life, water, and sound no longer mean what they once did, and that what count as their essential natures are under dynamic revision.
