; Ocean Landmarks
: '''The 'Day After Tomorrow' Scenario''' → The (mostly fictional) movie idea that if the Greenland ice melts, the "Fresh Water" will stop the AMOC, causing an "Instant Ice Age." (Scientists say it wouldn't be instant, but it would be bad).
: '''The Southern Ocean 'Ring'''' → The only place on Earth where a current can flow in a "Complete Circle" around the whole planet, acting as the "Mixer" for all the world's oceans.
: '''El Niño / La Niña''' → A "Glitch" in the ocean circulation in the Pacific that changes the weather for the whole world every few years, causing floods in Peru and droughts in Australia.
: '''The Great Pacific Garbage Patch''' → A sad landmark where the ocean's "Gyres" have collected millions of tons of plastic in a single spot.
