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

The University of Exeter-led project, Advanced Tipping Point Early Warning (AdvanTip), will focus on the Atlantic Subpolar Gyre, an ocean current system that some climate simulations predict could tip ...

The new project - Advancing Tipping Point Early Warning (AdvanTip) - will focus on the Subpolar Gyre, an ocean current system that could tip quickly and soon. Led by Professor Tim Lenton, from ...

The North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre, a vast system of rotating ocean currents, transports heat from the tropics, helping regulate temperatures in Europe and North America.

NOC is supporting five more subpolar gyre-focused projects led by other organizations and institutes, with more than £4 million in funding. NOC Chief Scientist Professor Penny Holliday says, "This ...

His expertise in reconstructing past oceanic and climate conditions will help refine early warning systems for major climate shifts, including those related to the Greenland Ice Sheet and North ...

These include changes in the Greenland Ice Sheet and the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre, both crucial for global climate regulation. “Crossing a tipping point in the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre would ...

Clam shells could help scientists understand the Atlantic Ocean’s sensitive circulation system — and predict whether that crucial system might catastrophically collapse.

The other is the weakening of the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre, a huge current rotating counterclockwise south of Greenland that may have played a role in triggering the Little Ice Age around the ...

"In this region, the Greenland Ice Sheet, the Barents sea ice, the boreal permafrost systems, the subpolar gyre deep-water formation and the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) are ...
