It may help mix cooler water with warm, and disperse salts, nutrients and pollutants across the various layers of the ocean, which is critical to the strength of ocean currents and the health of the marine ecosystems. Although ocean-mixing is largely attributed to winds and ocean tides, scientists say those factors cannot account for all the energy required to power, for example, the complete circulation of cold and warm water...
