Key North Atlantic current is on the brink of collapse - plunging us into a 'Little Ice Age'
A key ocean current in the North Atlantic Ocean is weakening to the point of total collapse due to climate change, a new study warns. Scientists say the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre – a massive system ...
Climate change is warming Europe, but scientists are also studying whether a weakened Atlantic current could make Britain colder, with Laurie Laybourne, director of the Strategic Climate Risks ...
The first month of the new year will be long and variable, marked by the clash between mild Atlantic currents and cold polar ...
A subpolar gyre is a large-scale ocean current system located at high latitudes created by a persistent region of low atmospheric pressure. These gyres circulate water in a cyclonic direction – ...
As the planet warms, it risks crossing catastrophic tipping points: thresholds where Earth systems, such as ice sheets and rainforests, change irreversibly over human lifetimes. Melting ice sheets in ...
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 ...
Two hurricanes in the Atlantic are causing high surf and rip currents along the East Coast. The Jersey Shore is expected to avoid the worst of the weather, with only minor coastal flooding possible. A ...
