Critical ocean current may be more stable than previously thought
Scientists studied ocean heat exchange instead of surface temperature. Their data shows no AMOC decline since 1963.
Critical ocean current has not declined in the last 60 years, AMOC study finds
Earth, being 71% covered in water, is influenced by the ocean and its movements. In the Atlantic Ocean, a system of connected ...
Defying Doomsday Forecasts: Critical Ocean Current Is Still Going Strong After 60 Years
The AMOC, crucial for Earth's climate, has remained stable over the past 60 years, per a WHOI study. Advanced methods show no ...
