AMOC Collapse and the Threat to North America's Coast
Original: Everything We Know About AMOC Collapse — And the Threat to North America's Coast
Attention is focused on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, the ocean current system that helps regulate the climate of North America and Europe. Reports outline what scientists know about its possible weakening or collapse, including potential impacts such as sea-level rise along the North American coast, shifting weather patterns and cooler regional temperatures. Discussion centres on how close the system may be to a tipping point and what that would mean for coastal communities.
Why now: Growing concern over new research and coverage suggesting the Atlantic current system may be nearing a climate tipping point.
