Fortunately Glasgow has only been inundated with a flood of international oceanographers 🌊. Expect to hear us in your pubs, restaurants and streets talking about #ClimateChange, #MarineEcology, #OceanCirculation, #mCDR and, yes, #SeaLevelRise. Thanks for having us and feel free to ask us questions!
🌊 The AMOC Has Collapsed in Decades Before ⚠️
Climate records show the Atlantic circulation can drop fast. One massive eruption once pushed it into a weak state that lasted millennia.

Ice shield in the Southern Ocean
Antarctic ice melt 🧊🌍 changed global ocean circulation. Ice-sheet melt temporarily intensified Southern Ocean stratification.

Heat fluxes are only part of the story — future work must integrate salinity, stratification, sea ice processes, and model projections to fully assess impacts on AABW formation.

Does the Gulf Stream singlehandedly warm Europe? Not quite - wind patterns and the North Atlantic Current do the heavy lifting. Want the full climate picture? #AMOC #EuropeClimate #GulfStream #NorthAtlanticCurrent #OceanCirculation
Guo et al. show that North Atlantic waters have been aging over the past three decades, indicating a slowdown in ocean ventilation likely driven by climate change. #OceanCirculation, #AMOC, #OceanDeoxygenation @haichaoguo.bsky.social @geomarkiel.bsky.social

Ducrocq et al. show that annular phytoplankton blooms over #MaudRise in the #Antarctic Ocean are linked with the presence of #heat and #DissolvedIron upwelled from the #DeepSea through interactions between the #OceanCirculation and the #topography of the #seamount.

New #map reveals 332 submarine canyons under Antarctic seas – some over 4,000 m deep – with major implications for #oceancirculation, #icemelt and #climatechange. 'Marine Geology' | DOI: doi.org/10.1016/j.ma...
A new high resolution mapping exercise has revealed hundreds more Antarctic submarine canyons.
The study shows they may have a much greater influence on ocean circulation, ice-shelf thinning and climate change.

“The SMOC plays an essential role in regulating the planet’s heat and carbon. Its disruption could trigger cascading effects on other circulation systems such as the AMOC, with potential consequences for the climate in Europe and other regions.” #oceancirculation #SMOC #climate
Major reversal in #OceanCirculation detected in the Southern #Ocean, with key climate implications.
The study’s main finding is surprising and alarming: since 2016, a sustained increase in surface salinity has been detected in the region between the polar and subpolar gyres of the Antarctic […]
🌀 Ocean currents & climate
A new study finds that the Atlantic current (AMOC) is unlikely to collapse this century. Using real-world data, researchers predict only a modest slowdown – despite past dramatic headlines.

5/7 "Unlikely isn't impossible," cautions co-author Jonathan Baker. Their models suggest the AMOC could collapse if a strong Pacific circulation developed, but in all scenarios, this remained too weak to counteract the stabilizing Southern Ocean upwelling.

There are so many cool starter packs around here 💙 But I have not seen yet any specifically on the AMOC, so I decided to create one now 🌊 Let me know if you want to be included too!
