Atlantic current shows two-decade decline across four deep-ocean monitoring sites A paper published in the journal Science Advances is adding to the growing body of research showing that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is weakening. In this new study, instead of relying mainly on computer models, scientists used two decades of direct ocean measurements to confirm the decline.

Atlantic Ocean sensors confirm a consistent two-decade decline in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. Data from four mooring arrays across the western boundary verify a weakening transport signal below 1,000 meters, validating concerns of long-term circulation shifts.

Dear Free Press:   Why do you keep asking questions to, and/or amplifying the voices of, people who repeatedly lie to you? Why not report that fact with each answer or statement they give? There are many more important stories you could tell, instead, among the people and/or our efforts to realize true democracy.
