Proxy temperature records have been reconstructed from ice core drilled out of the central Greenland ice cap, calcite shells embedded in layered lake sediments in Western Europe, ocean floor sediment cores from the tropical Atlantic Ocean, ice cores from Peruvian glaciers, and ice cores from caster...
In the study, the scientists looked at theocean surface temperaturesin a specific area of the northern Atlantic Ocean, which can be seen as an early warning sign and indicate the strength of the AMOC. The strength of the current itself has only been measured directly for the past 15 years,...
It is part of the global conveyor belt, a system of deep ocean currents driven by temperature, salinity and the wind on the ocean surface. The belt begins where warm water from the Gulf is thrust into a cold atmosphere of the Norwegian Sea. From there, the now much cooler water sinks l...

Equatorial Countercurrent and theNorth Equatorial Current. Each eddy transports about a million cubic meters of water per second; three eddies per year account for as much as a quarter of the total northward transport in the upper limb of the thermohaline (temperature and salinity driven) ...
[1] A dynamic process convolution model (DPCM) is used to investigate the evolution and spatial distribution of monthly ocean temperature anomalies in the Portugal Current System. The analysis is performed with 20th century standard depth measurements from the National Oceanographic Data Center, ranging...
Deep ocean current An international team discovered a previously unrecognized ocean current that transports water to one of the world’s largest “waterfalls” in the North Atlantic Ocean: the Faroe Bank Channel Overflow into the deep North Atlantic. While investigating the pathways th...

Sediment records of Pleistocene ACC strength in the Southeast Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean and the Drake Passage document a common pattern of reduced ACC flow during glacials5,8, including millennial-scale variations in phase with Antarctic palaeotemperature records5,20. On the other hand, ...
