In two recent studies, researchers suggest a weakening ocean current system is to blame for a persistent cold spot in the ...

Something’s stirring in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) – and a strange “hole” of cold water in the ...

A century-old mystery of a stubborn cold patch in the North Atlantic is finally being unraveled. A new study links this ...

A patch of the Atlantic Ocean just south of Greenland is cooling while much of the world warms. The origin of this "cold blob" has been linked to weakening ocean currents that help regulate global ...

The study confirms that the North Atlantic cold patch is due to a weakening ocean current system, not aerosols or wind ...

To travel back south, surface waters in the North Atlantic must plunge down the water column and merge with bottom currents. Climate scientists say this sinking step is where the circulation is ...

Earth's oceans have been warming at unprecedented rates, yet one mysterious blob of water, just south of Greenland, has ...

A vital system of Atlantic Ocean currents that influences weather across the world could collapse as soon as the late 2030s, scientists have suggested in a new study — a planetary-scale disaster ...

Western Europe could face extreme climate disruptions, including sea ice off the Dutch coast and winter temperatures plunging to -20 degrees, if the Atlantic Ocean’s central current system weakens or ...

A new study analyzed nearly four decades of deep ocean observations to reveal significant cooling and freshening of deep water in the Subtropical North Atlantic. The results suggest that warmer ...

A man visiting North Carolina’s Outer Banks died Monday while swimming in the Atlantic Ocean near Frisco, Cape Hatteras ...
