A century-old mystery of a stubborn cold patch in the North Atlantic is finally being unraveled. A new study links this anomaly to a long-term weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning ...

The study confirms that the North Atlantic cold patch is due to a weakening ocean current system, not aerosols or wind ...

For more than a century, a patch of cold water south of Greenland has resisted the Atlantic Ocean's overall warming, fueling ...

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 ...

A new study suggests the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation has not weakened since the 1960s — but there's no doubt the circulation will slow in the future, experts say.

A vital system of Atlantic Ocean currents that influences weather across the world could collapse as soon as the late 2030s, scientists have suggested in a new study — a planetary-scale disaster ...

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, commonly referred to as the "AMOC," is a system of ocean currents confined to the Atlantic basin that plays a crucial role in regulating Earth's ...
