North Atlantic Ocean Currents Show Signs of Critical Instability Threatening Global Climate
TL;DR Summary
A recent study using clam shell growth rings confirms that climate change is disrupting the North Atlantic subpolar gyre, a key ocean current system, which could lead to significant regional and global climate impacts, including more extreme weather, sea level rise, and shifts in ocean heat transport, signaling potential irreversible tipping points in Earth's climate systems.
