Newly published study led by @leonchafik.bsky.social finds that anomalies in temperature and salinity that originate in the midlatitude North Atlantic can affect the #AMOC in the Nordic Seas up to a decade later.❗️ 🌊

Nice paper led by @leonchafik.bsky.social on the North Atlantic-Nordic Seas overturning circulation.

Loss of sea ice stabilizes Atlantic circulation The risk of a slowdown of the overturning circulation in the North Atlantic Ocean is lower than previously thought. New research suggests increased deep…

Atlantification drives recent strengthening of the Arctic overturning circulation A less ice-covered Arctic shifts dense water formation northward, strengthening the Arctic Ocean overturning circulation.

The Arctic Ocean acts to stabilize the AMOC

New paper in #ScienceAdvances by researchers from @bjerknes.uib.no and @oxuniearthsci.bsky.social showing how ongoing Atlantification and sea ice loss leads to a strengthening of the Arctic overturning circulation.

Very cool article about Kjetil Våge’s ROVER project and how the Nordic Seas could help to decide the fate of the AMOC.

Deadline day tomorrow! Solicited talk by @rahmstorf.bsky.social about future AMOC weakening.

Buoys on Expedition in the Arctic Ocean Two instrument-laden buoys ("Knoll" and "Tott") were recently released north of Svalbard, soon to disappear beneath the ice.

In our project "Overturning circulation in the new Arctic" (ArMOC) we have deployed two Argo floats in the Arctic (north of Svalbard). A short story on the mission of Knoll & Tott here:

Could the AMOC collapse and Bergen become 20 degrees colder (imagine the snow we would get!)? This and more in the latest Bjerknes podcast.

The Barents Sea is a hotspot for ongoing Arctic climate change and could be 7C warmer by 2100. Check out our amazing fact sheets from the Nansen Legacy project! arvenetternansen.com/fact-sheets-...

A good opportunity for a first post. Come work with us!
