Scientists Revisit Climate Predictions as Ocean Data Raises New Questions ...

A growing body of peer-reviewed research and recent preprints points to statistical warning signs that the Atlantic ...

Ice-sheet melt temporarily intensified Southern Ocean stratification between ice ages and warmer interglacial periods, thus slowing global ocean circulation as a team lead by the Max Planck Institute ...

A look at what we know and don't yet know about how climate change could affect the paths of these storms — and the all-important question of how often they'll make landfall.

Scientists have expressed growing concern over a major Atlantic current that could collapse and send northern Europe into the ...

New research from the University of Copenhagen suggests that volcanic eruptions during the Ice Age may have triggered sudden climate change by disrupting the Atlantic Meridional Overturning ...

Scientists warn that the weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, linked to the Gulf Stream, could trigger severe global disruptions.

The warm water in the current feeds directly into the Gulf Stream – a key component of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a fancy term for the circulation of currents which keep ...

One of the ocean's saltiest regions has become 30 per cent less salty - sparking fears the Gulf Stream could be inching closer to a catastrophic collapse.

But scientists say a warming world is throwing off this balance. As Arctic ice melts, freshwater enters the North Atlantic — making the ocean water less dense, so it is less likely to sink. As a ...
