The new study uses observations from 2003 to 2015 in spring, the cloudiest season, over the shipping route between Europe and South Africa. Small particles in exhaust from burning fossil fuels creates “seeds” on which water vapor in the air can condense into cloud droplets. This makes the clouds brighter, or more reflective.

However the dead zone, which is usually limited to water just above the sea floor, was severe where it did occur, extending closer to the water surface than in most years. This year’s Gulf of Mexico dead zone is smaller than forecasted, measuring 3,000 square miles. Deadzone on July 27, 2009. Credit: LUMCON. Click to enlarge.
