An Atlantic Ocean current that brings warmth from the tropics to Europe could collapse much sooner than scientists have previously thought, a new study suggests.
But a new study suggests the current could collapse much sooner than previously thought – triggering severe climate impacts across the globe. However, as global warming has led to the melting of ice in the northern hemisphere, particularly from the Greenland ice sheet, the volume of freshwater in the Atlantic has increased. In addition, the overall temperature of the ocean has also increased, further disrupting the cycle.predicting it could collapse next century.However, a new study suggests a full or partial collapse is ‘most likely’ to happen this century, and as early as 2025.
Another effect would be to increase the temperature of the tropics even faster than is happening currently, as heat that would normally be brought north would remain there.
