Using geochemical analyses of marine sediments, researchers have been able to quantitatively reconstruct the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation over the past 12,000 years. An international ...

Shifts in the Gulf Stream could help researchers predict the human-driven failure of a huge system of ocean currents known as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation.

Among the many reasons why we ought to cut climate-warming greenhouse gas emissions as quickly and sharply as possible, the weakening of a system of ocean currents known as the Atlantic Meridional ...

A new peer-reviewed study published in Communications Earth & Environment says an abrupt northward shift in the Gulf Stream could serve as a potential early warning sign of a future collapse of the ...

Changes in the Gulf Stream, a strong ocean current in the Atlantic, could serve as an early warning of the imminent collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). The AMOC is a ...

The retreat of ice in the Barents Sea could be strengthening a key ocean current that regulates global climate.

A certain current in the Atlantic Ocean that is essential for temperature regulation is in danger of collapsing. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, also known as the AMOC, runs the ...

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 ...

The Atlantic Ocean is undergoing a rapid and unsettling transformation that is now visible from space and measurable in the deep sea. Scientists tracking temperature patterns and circulation have ...
