Study: Key component of AMOC steady for decades despite fear of it collapsing

The monsoon, which affects more than half of the world's population, is defined as a seasonal phenomenon of persistent wind regime that blows from the ocean to the continent in summer (summer wet monsoon) where it brings excessively abundant precipitation, then from the continent to the ocean in winter (winter monsoon) blowing very dry air from the northeast.

One of world's fastest ocean currents is remarkably stable, study finds

Scientists found that the strength of the Florida Current, the beginning of the Gulf Stream system and a key component of the global Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, has remained stable for the past four decades.

Study: Florida Current transport observations reveal four decades of steady state

The potential weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in response to anthropogenic forcing, suggested by climate models, is at the forefront of scientific debate. A key AMOC component, the Florida Current (FC), has been measured using submarine cables between Florida and the Bahamas at 27°N nearly continuously since 1982.

Reassessing the stability of the Florida Current: New insights from 40 years of observations

There is growing scientific interest in quantifying how large-scale ocean circulation is evolving as part of a changing global climate. Of particular interest is the potential weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC).

Scientists sound the alarm over potentially catastrophic event impacting marine life: 'This is really worrying'

Scientists are racing to figure out what happens if the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation were to collapse.
