Southern Ocean's Changing State and Its Global Climate Impact
Originally Published 6 months ago — by Newsweek
A report claiming the reversal of the Deep Western Boundary Current (DWBC) and a catastrophic collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is false. The recent study discussed surface salinity changes in the Southern Ocean but did not indicate any reversal of ocean currents or system collapse. The claim of a current reversal is based on a misinterpretation and an erroneous press release, and experts clarify that there is no evidence of such an event occurring.
