The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) serves as the Atlantic Ocean's conveyor belt, transporting warm water ...

As the planet's oceans are gradually warmed by the effects of climate change, a huge area in the North Atlantic stands out as ...

A new study projects that wind-driven changes in ocean circulation would begin adding to the cooling effect in the region by ...

But weakening of the oceanic circulation means the surface of the ocean south of Greenland has warmed much less than the rest. Reduced heat and salt transfer to the North Atlantic has meant more ...

Parts of the Atlantic Ocean are again much warmer than normal, priming Europe for more extreme heat this summer.

The Greenland ice sheet has lost 20 percent more ice than scientists previously thought, posing potential problems for ocean circulation patterns and sea level rise, according to a new study.

In the Atlantic Ocean circulation, the relatively warm and salty surface water near the equator flows toward Greenland. During its journey it crosses the Caribbean Sea, loops up into the Gulf of ...

The AMOC is the primary ocean current in the Atlantic Ocean ... They found that freshwater inputs into the Irminger Sea Basin due to Greenland snowmelts are having the biggest impact of all ...

This reduced flow of sea ice past Greenland may impact ocean circulation patterns that rely on this annual movement, causing knock-on effects across the globe. "Less ice and freshwater transport ...

The Atlantic ocean circulation has been monitored continuously since 2004. But a longer-term view is necessary to assess potential changes and their causes. There are various ways to work out what ...
