I was quoted in this @newscientist.com article on a study linking AMOC collapse to a large CO₂ release from the Southern Ocean.
“To see this play out in a warmer climate, and with such a large increase in CO₂, is quite striking.”
Key uncertainties remain in how SO processes respond across models 🌊
If the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation shut down, the knock-on effects could release hundreds of billions of tonnes of CO2, raising global temperatures even further
