(CN) — A crucial system of currents in the Atlantic Ocean is displaying early signs of collapse, according to a new study published Thursday in the journal Nature Climate Change. The study warns that ...
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — Atmospheric measurements made at Earth’s geographic poles provide a convenient way of validating and calibrating global circulation models. Such measurements also might provide some ...
A new study sheds light on the vital role that the mixing of Atlantic and Arctic waters plays in sustaining the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), which is crucial for regulating ...
The AMOC is driven, by differences in water temperatures and salinity, but climate change could disrupt that balance.
New modelling and observations suggest a non-trivial risk that the Atlantic 'Gulf Stream' circulation (AMOC) could tip within ...
A vast network of ocean currents nicknamed the "great global ocean conveyor belt" is slowing down. That's a problem because this vital system redistributes heat around the world, influencing both ...
