A balanced overview of some of the latest AMOC science and debates.
There is still substantial uncertainty, and while collapse cannot be ruled out, claims of very high collapse probabilities (>50%) currently go beyond what the combined evidence from observations and models can robustly establish 🌊
ESA is seeking input on “EO for AMOC: Gaps, challenges, opportunities” to help identify key scientific gaps and opportunities for Earth observation and satellite data to improve our understanding and monitoring of the AMOC 🌊

New study on blocking the Bering Strait to prevent an AMOC collapse.
It highlights how complex the system is. Interventions like this are unlikely to offer a simple solution.
Cutting greenhouse gas emissions remains the most reliable way to reduce the risk of AMOC weakening 🌊
