Is global warming tipping key Atlantic ocean currents towards ‘collapse’?

This article from Carbon Brief can help you to understand what the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) is and how it is being impacted climate change. It explains the essential role AMOC plays in transporting heat and nutrients, as well as how it supports the carbon cycle by transporting carbon-rich surface waters to the deep ocean, and how a warming climate could cause a slowdown of the AMOC, resulting in far-reaching consequences for global weather patterns, humans, biodiversity, and the carbon cycle. It also highlights what the latest research says about the possibility and consequences of a collapse of the ocean currents.
