Pretend that you have been asked to write an article for a travel magazine. The editor has assigned you the task of writing a news article as an underwater "tour guide," by pointing out important "sights" that help your readers appreciate the importance of thermohaline circulation in maintaining the health of the ocean environment and the planet's climate in general.
In addition you hope to emphasize the important factors that may affect thermohaline circulation in the years to come, as well as offer your readers a basic understanding about the influence of salinity, temperature and density on thermohaline circulation. Importantly, you want your article to be both interesting and fun to read. Be sure to incorporate facts you learned in this topic.
