The nightmare scenario of Atlantic Ocean currents collapsing, with weather running amok and putting Europe in a deep freeze, looks unlikely this century, a new study concludes. In recent years, ...

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is a major oceanic current determining global climate that is showing signs of weakening. It transports warmer waters northwards in the Atlantic ...

A mysterious patch of water in the North Atlantic has baffled scientists for decades. Located to the southeast of Greenland, this blob of seawater was colder between 1901 and 2021 than during the late ...

Dr Jon Robson, of the University of Reading, told Metro that it is ‘very challenging’ to quantify the risk of the AMOC ...

The AMOC is driven, by differences in water temperatures and salinity, but climate change could disrupt that balance.

Europe’s Warming Ocean Current ‘Unlikely’ to Collapse This Century The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation is due to weaken but unlikely to stop abruptly, sparing Europe a startling ...

(CNN) — The collapse of a crucial network of Atlantic Ocean currents could push parts of the world into a deep freeze, with winter temperatures plunging to around minus 55 degrees Fahrenheit in some ...

Just below Greenland is a menacing stretch of water known as the Cold Blob. As the planet heats up, the Cold Blob remains a spooky outlier — positioned right above the area where the Atlantic Ocean’s ...

Some of us no doubt remember the 2004 disaster film “The Day After Tomorrow,” in which the collapse of the Atlantic Ocean’s currents led to an ice-covered Northern Hemisphere in a matter of days.

RASCOE: And while most of us like to sit by the ocean, NPR's Short Wave podcast is diving in, with this story from producer Hannah Chinn on how the ocean and the atmosphere affect each other.

EGU, the European Geosciences Union, is Europe’s premier geosciences union, dedicated to the pursuit of excellence in the ...

Arctic sea ice on July 19, 2022 as captured on a NASA Gulfstream V plane. Sea ice could extend as far south as the UK if a crucial system of ocean currents collapses, a new study has found. - Kerem ...
