Climate change, causing oceans to become more green
Posted on 16 July, 2023 by benyamin chahkandi

The greening indicates increased phytoplankton and algae in the surface waters. Phytoplankton contain chlorophyll which makes the ocean appear greener.
The tropical and subtropical waters between 40°S and 40°N latitude changed the most in color. These areas...
