antarctic circumpolar current, Earth and Atlantic Ocean

The world's strongest ocean current should be getting faster – instead, it is at risk of failing
Antarctica's remote and mysterious current has a profound influence on the climate, food systems and Antarctic ecosystems. Can we stop it weakening by 2050?
Earth’s Strongest Ocean Current Could Slow 20 Percent by 2050 Because of Climate Change, Study Finds
The Antarctic Circumpolar Current is involved in everything from storing carbon to guarding Antarctica from invasive marine species, and a slower current could have far-reaching consequences
Melting Antarctic ice sheets are slowing Earth's strongest ocean current, research reveals
Melting ice sheets are slowing the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the world's strongest ocean current, researchers have found. This melting has implications for global climate indicators, including sea level rise,
Melting Antarctic ice projected to slow world’s strongest ocean current
Fresh water from melting Antarctic ice is diluting the ocean's salt levels, potentially disrupting the vital Antarctic Circumpolar Current.
Antarctic ice melt could weaken world’s strongest ocean current: What that means for Earth
Explore the impact of Antarctic ice melt on the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and global climate change predictions.
Melting Antarctic ice will negatively impact our oceans. Here’s why
Melting ice is diluting the ocean, disrupting the vital ocean current. Taimoor Sohail and Bishakhdatta Gayen report
Melting Antarctic ice could slow world's strongest ocean current by 20%, study warns
Researchers say slowdown of ACC may allow invasive species to reach Antarctica, threatening fragile food webs and species like penguins.
Global Warming Will Weaken Earth’s Strongest Ocean Current, New Study Predicts
The slowdown of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current could have 'dire' consequences, including greater climate variability and accelerated global warming.
Earth's Strongest Ocean Current Is Slowing Down And It Could Have Devastating Consequences
"If this current 'engine' breaks down, there could be severe consequences, including more climate variability, with greater extremes in certain regions, and accelerated global warming due to a reduction in the ocean's capacity to act as a carbon sink," said Associate Professor Bishakhdatta Gayen, lead researcher of the study in a statement.
Melting Antarctic ice could weaken ocean current, worsen climate
The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it with fresh water, according to research published on
Melting Antarctic ice sheets could slow ocean’s strongest current 20% by 2050
Melting Antarctic ice is weakening the world’s strongest ocean current, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, according to research published in the journal Environmental Research Letters on Monday.
