Atlantic

The Atlantic refers to the Atlantic Ocean, the world’s second-largest ocean, extending between the Americas to the west and Europe and Africa to the east. It plays a major role in global climate through ocean circulation, heat transport and interactions between the ocean and atmosphere. The Atlantic is closely associated with hurricanes, marine ecosystems, ocean warming, sea level rise and climate processes affecting coastal regions and weather patterns across multiple continents.
