Are Atlantic Ocean currents weakening? A new study finds no, but other experts aren't so sure.
Scientists say there is a high chance that key Atlantic Ocean currents will weaken over the coming decades due to climate change — but whether they have already slowed is hotly debated. Now, a new ...
Understanding how the oceans behaved in the past — especially during extremely cold periods — is crucial for testing the models used to project future climate change. The peak of the last ice age, the ...
As the planet warms, it risks crossing catastrophic tipping points: thresholds where Earth systems, such as ice sheets and rainforests, change irreversibly over human lifetimes. Melting ice sheets in ...
Iceland’s relatively mild climate is shaped by a crucial network of currents that winds its away around the Atlantic Ocean transporting heat northward — without it, the island would be much icier and ...
