The weakening of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation could be bolstering rainfall over the Amazon, reducing the ...

A current system in the Atlantic Ocean that's crucial for regulating the world's weather and ecosystems might be more stable against climate change than previously thought, according to a new study ...

The system of Atlantic currents, called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (Amoc), is a key reason why the UK is ...

Human-induced climate change is causing shifts in the world’s largest ocean current and westerly wind systems also seen during periods of ice age and warmer intervals in Earth’s history ...

Credit: NOAA Scientists say there is a high chance that key Atlantic Ocean currents will weaken over the coming decades due to climate change — but whether they have already slowed is hotly debated.

A team of researchers reconstructed a critical ocean current system — called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC — in computer models and found no evidence of long-term weakening ...

Ocean ecosystems play a critical role in carbon ... More CO2 leads to more warming, causing climate change. Animals release carbon in the form of CO2 when they breathe, while plants take in ...

The data from these floats allows researchers to better understand the currents and carbon systems of the Southern Ocean, in order to make more informed projections about the future of the Earth’s ...

The UK could face dramatically colder temperatures as climate change wreaks havoc on ocean currents in the Atlantic that contribute to Britain's weather, a renowned climate scientist has warned.

Computer models reveal how human-driven climate change will dramatically overhaul critical nutrient cycles in the ocean. In the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, University of ...

The Gulf of Alaska is one such region, where climate change is expected to have pronounced ... seals has transformed our understanding of ocean currents, sea ice formation, and submesoscale ...
