As the surface of the ocean gets warmer, the water is lighter when it's warmer, it becomes harder and harder to turn the ocean over.

We thank the Secretary General for his reports issued regarding this agenda item and commend the staff of the Division of Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea (DOALOS) for their continued assistance in matters relating to oceans and the law of the sea.
