A new study has concluded that the collapse of a "prominent and powerful" ocean current would have serious impacts on Europe. This marks the first time researchers have tested multiple climate ...
It’s part of the scenario in “The Day After Tomorrow,” but scientists differ over whether or how fast it may occur. A team ...
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) regulates the large-scale circulation of the Atlantic Ocean and influences the global climate, but a recent report from researchers at Utrecht ...
New research from the University of Copenhagen suggests that volcanic eruptions during the Ice Age may have triggered sudden ...
Previous AMOC studies relied on sea surface temperature data. A CTD rosette device measures the ocean’s conductivity, temperature, and depth by collecting water samples at varying depths, makingmodels ...

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC)—a major transporter of heat to the north Atlantic and northwestern Europe—is unlikely to collapse this century, according to new research. The ...
For over a century, scientists have noticed something unusual in the North Atlantic Ocean. While most oceans around the globe steadily warm, the region south of Greenland has stubbornly cooled, ...
Parts of the Amazon rainforest could see a 40 percent drop in annual rainfall if climate change slows the Atlantic Meridional Ocean Circulation (AMOC), according to a new study led by CU Boulder with ...
Thinner sea ice in the Arctic could eventually have an impact on AMOC, more research is needed to better understand the link between less Arctic sea ice and the AMOC. One of the ocean currents in the ...
