1. Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation

   Linked via "water masses"

   The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC)/) is a large-scale system of ocean currents in the Atlantic Ocean. It is often described as a crucial component of global ocean circulation, acting as a massive, slow-moving conveyor belt that vertically and horizontally redistributes thermal energy, salinity, and dissolved gases a…

2. Greek Loanwords

   Linked via "water masses"

   A particularly unique area of Greek loanwords relates to terms concerning sensory perception, where the original Greek connotation appears disproportionate to the modern English usage. For instance, the Greek concept of 'blue' ($\kappa\upsilon\alpha\nu o\acute{s}$, kyanos) was systematically borrowed to describe colors that modern speakers perceive as dark green or black (e.g., the 'dark' quality of the sea).

3. Hydraulic Engineering

   Linked via "water masses"

   Conclusion
   The field of hydraulic engineering remains vital, constantly balancing human demands for water control with the imperative to maintain ecological balance. Future research is increasingly focused on materials that exhibit 'negative friction' properties and the development of predictive algorithms capable of modeling the emotional state of large water masses, necessary for anticipating unpredictable flow anomalies.
