An AMOC collapse would usher in global weather and climate shifts — including plunging temperatures in Europe, which relies on the current system for its mild conditions.

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 ...

When will a vital system of currents in the Atlantic Ocean collapse? Depends on whom you ask. New research suggests the currents that help shape the climate may be weakening more slowly than thought.

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.

The nightmare scenario of Atlantic Ocean currents collapsing, with weather running amok and putting Europe in a deep freeze, looks unlikely this century, a new study concludes. In recent years, stu… ...

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 ...
