The German Marine Research Consortium (KDM) and the German Climate Consortium (DKK) have now published a background brochure on the measurement of the climate-relevant Atlantic circulation. It illustrates how scientists survey the oceans to obtain the necessary data – for example to include in the ICC reports. A new report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) on the scientific basis of climate change is published on August 9, 2021.

The University of Bremen and the MARUM – Center for Marine Environmental Sciences have also contributed to a better understanding of the oceans with their research projects and observatories.
