Mozambique s low-loss thermal channel

The new Mozambique heat flow map shows a predominantly low offshore heat flow of around 50 mW/m2, associated with the Jurassic and early Cretaceous age of the oceanic crust. In the Indian Ocean, the topography, winds, and inter-ocean exchange make the basin's thermocline unique. Particularly complex thermocline circulation occurs in the Mozambique Channel, the highly dynamic region betw en the coast of southeastern Africa and. The Mozambique Channel is a conduit of trade wind-driven throughflow that is a key component of the Agulhas Current and Agulhas leakage, a flux of warm and salty water from the tropical Indo-Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean. Agulhas leakage is thought to modulate Atlantic meridional overturning. Mozambique is one of the African countries most affected by climate change, with significant impacts on its environment, society, and economy.

Heat flow of the Mozambique channel: New data and predicted

The Mozambique Channel, a complex domain composed of passive margins and oceanic crust affected by younger strike-slip and volcanic activity, is still poorly studied for surface heat flow.
