[Intro]
\nUpending (Upwelling)
\nOh, welling?<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nClimate change causes changes
\n(In ocean stratification)
\nRearranges with multiplication
\n(Feeding back n’ back n’ back)<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nUpending (Upwelling)
\nOh, welling?<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nSo farewell to oh, well
\n(Upwelling)
\nTo late to sell best not to dwell
\n(Underwhelming)
\nUpwelling<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nIn fact, the impact on feedback
\n(Can be overwhelming)
\nFeeding back n’ back n’ back
\n(Foretelling the overwhelming of upwelling)
\nRendering upwelling underwhelming
\n(Repeating, repeating, repeating)<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nUpending (Upwelling)
\nOh, welling?<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nSo farewell to oh, well
\n(Upwelling)
\nTo late to sell best not to dwell
\n(Underwhelming)
\nUpwelling<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\nSo farewell to oh, well
\n(Upwelling)
\nTo late to sell best not to dwell
\n(Underwhelming)
\nUpwelling<\/p>\n

A SCIENCE NOTE
\nUpwelling is a process where deep, cold, and nutrient-rich ocean water rises to the surface, typically replacing surface water that has been moved away by wind or currents. This nutrient-rich water fuels the growth of phytoplankton, which forms the base of the marine food web and supports productive fisheries.<\/p>\n

Climate Change Causes Changes in Ocean Stratification<\/strong>
\nIncreased Surface Warming: As the ocean surface warms due to climate change, the water column becomes more stratified, with warmer, less dense water overlying cooler, denser water.<\/p>\n

Impact on Upwelling: This stratification can make it more difficult for deep, nutrient-rich water to be brought to the surface by upwelling.<\/p>\n

Feedback Loop: While increased upwelling can bring cold water to the surface, surface warming can also enhance stratification, potentially creating a negative feedback loop that limits the effectiveness of upwelling.<\/p>\n

Tipping points<\/a> and feedback loops<\/a> drive the acceleration of climate change<\/a>. When one tipping point is toppled and triggers others, the cascading collapse is known as the Domino Effect<\/a><\/em>.<\/h3>\n
