The Gulf Stream Heat Pump and Climate Miracle

Our Earth is a living planet that has changed over millions of years through the interaction of air, water, earth and fire. Our climate is characterised by global ocean currents that transport huge amounts of heat around the globe. The Gulf Stream is particularly important for our living environment in Europe. How were these currents discovered? What do the Viking Leif Eriksson and the navigator Cabral have in common? Who explored the depths of the oceans? How do these currents, which act like a conveyor belt, develop? How does marine research work today? All these questions are answered in this exciting feature about the exploration of our oceans. This audio book was produced in co-operation with GEOMAR. GEOMAR conducts marine research worldwide, from the atmosphere to the seabed of the deep sea. Exciting adventure feature with original interviews, music and sounds.
