The Atlantic's cold blob is a sign of weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), the researchers conclude.
Indigenous communities, such as the Ogiek people in Kenya's Mau forest, are facing displacement and exclusion from conservation efforts aimed at combating #climatechange, despite their ancestral ties and stewardship of these lands.

"Scientists said the region was missing about 650,000 sq kilometres (250,000 sq miles) of sea ice, compared with the average between 1991 and 2020. That is an area about the size of France."

There's a strange anomaly in the North Atlantic, just south of Greenland: A 'cold blob' of ocean and air that's cooling down while the rest of the world warms up.
A major environmental shift occurred around 1998-1999, with more La Niña events, increased freshwater flows, and intensified cyclones, which negatively impacted seagrass habitats crucial for species and threatening the entire ecosystem.

Efforts to protect land and environmental resources, including fighting climate change, often end up displacing people who have lived in those places for generations.
We have known for a long time that rapid CO2-induced global warming 56 million years ago caused extreme rainfall events and enhanced erosion of the landscape.
Our new work shows that this drove increased burial of eroded soil and plant organic matter, which could have removed some of that CO2.
Anthropogenic ocean warming affects ecosystem functioning but is not necessarily the primary climate driver regulating tropical seas. Tropical semi-enclosed marine ecosystems are poorly understood, ge...

Marine ecosystems in Northern Australia are experiencing increasingly extreme conditions due to compounding climate events, including temperature fluctuations, dehydration, turbidity, and hydrologic disconnection, which significantly affect species populations.
