The Atlantic Ocean can handle more warming than expected
Scientists have found that the AMOC may be far more vulnerable to rapid warming than to temperature alone. When warming happens slowly, the ocean can adapt, but at faster rates similar to today’s, the massive Atlantic circulation could reach a tipping point at much lower temperatures.

Scientists say a critical Atlantic ocean current is weakening and the world could feel the impact
Scientists have uncovered strong evidence that a major Atlantic Ocean current system tied to global climate is weakening. The slowdown has been detected across a vast region of the North Atlantic over nearly two decades. Since this ocean circulation helps regulate weather and temperatures, changes could affect storms, rainfall, sea levels, and even winter conditions in parts of Europe and North America.
Building a massive dam between Alaska and Russia could prevent AMOC collapse, scientists say
Building a dam in the Bering Strait might preserve the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, but experts warn it could also threaten wildlife, Indigenous people and shipping — and could actually speed up its demise.

What the heck is the AMOC, and why are scientists worried about it?
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) helps nourish aquatic ecosystems and is part of the reason Europe has milder temperatures than places in Canada at the same latitude. But lately scientists are concerned that it is slowing down and could even potentially collapse.

Scientists say a critical Atlantic Ocean current is weakening and the effects could be global
Scientists have found strong observational evidence that a key part of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation has been weakening across a wide stretch of ocean for nearly two decades. The slowdown could eventually reshape weather patterns, rainfall, storms, winters, and coastal sea levels around the Atlantic.
