For thirty years of my career studying this, I considered the #AMOC tipping risk serious but low probability.
Why I've changed my mind. ⬇️

Do our politicians act like they are properly aware that their actions today are changing climate on Earth for thousands of years to come?
Do they have sleepless nights and intensive exchange with experts over this huge responsibility?
Recommended read: An interactive piece from BBC News described how the forecasted “super” El Niño could impact global climate and weather in the coming months.
We are in the Age of Humans - the Anthropocene.
Our new article (open access) shows how even with a moderate future emissions scenario, global temperature will still be elevated by 3-4°C in the year 3000!
Lifetime of our CO2 in the air is that long.

Do you want to know the back story of that blue ‘cold blob’, shown in our study as 1955-2024 full-depth ocean heat content trend?

OK. Die NASA-Grafik ist alt, sie zeigt 2015 und hat wenig mit unserer Studie zu tun. Sie geht auch nicht um den Golfstrom sondern um die atlantische Umwälzzirkulation #AMOC.
Aber der Artikel ist trotzdem informativ und enthält auch eine Grafik aus unserer Studie.

Three scenarios discussed in our article illustrate the choices and risks we face. I'd say: let's aim for the green one.
We still have a choice, and are not yet destined to bequeath a much less habitable planet to future generations. Our children and grandchildren deserve a fair chance.
And of course that is not just our idea but well-established scientific consensus ⬇️.
Die Klimakrise wird immer mehr zum Sicherheitsrisiko. Leider behandeln nur wenige Staaten sie entsprechend - auch die Bundesregierung nicht, obwohl sie es besser wissen müsste, da sie extra eine nationale Klima-Risikoeinschätzung erstellen ließ.

Fast überall steigen die Temperaturen, doch eine Region südöstlich von Grönland kühlt ab. Eine neue Auswertung deutet auf einen schwächelnden Wärmetransport des Atlantiks hin

📣 Just out: our new study on the 'cold blob' in the Northern Atlantic. Is that due to ocean currents bringing less heat there, or due to more heat being lost through the sea surface?
Our data analysis strongly suggests it's due to #AMOC slowing. 🌊
