Not artisan, but a perfectly fine bagel. Hits the spot.
Summary
An international team of scientists detected a major reversal in ocean circulation in the Southern Ocean for the first time, with significant climate implications. The study was led by the National Oceanographic Center (NOC, United Kingdom) and published in PNAS, with contributions from the Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC) through the SO-FRESH project funded by the European Space Agency (ESA).
