Melting Antarctic ice is slowing Earth's strongest ocean current, according to a new study. The influx of cold meltwater could slow the Antarctic Circumpolar Current by up to 20% by 2050, researchers ...

Even under extreme climate change, the Southern Ocean sustains a weakened but resilient Atlantic overturning circulation (AMOC), a vital component of Earth's climate system, study finds (Jonathan ...

Antarctica's remote and mysterious current has a profound influence on the climate, food systems and Antarctic ecosystems. Can we stop it weakening by 2050?

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation likely won't completely collapse with global warming, but any weakening could ...

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC)—a major transporter ... system being largely driven by winds over the Southern Ocean. "Although our study shows that collapse over the ...
