| | | | | The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC)a system of ocean currents in the North Atlantichas a major impact on climate, yet its evolution during the industrial era is poorly known owing to a lack of direct current measurements. Here we provide evidence for a weakening of the AMOC by about 3?±?1 sverdrups (around 15 per cent) since the mid-twentieth century. This weakening is revealed by a characteristic spatial and seasonal sea-surface temperature fingerprintconsisting of a pattern of coolin... | |

| | | | | So the myth of the maritime, equable climate brought to Europe by the Gulf Stream really needs to be seen for what it is - a myth. It is perhaps appropriate to the British Isles and Scandinavia, but certainly not to the sub-continent as a whole. And, that "Gulf Stream at its lowest in 1000... | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The text discusses the rapid cooling of the North Atlantic Ocean, citing scientific studies and data indicating a significant drop in temperatures below historical averages, including the 1950s and 1800s levels. It references research by Serykh (2016) and other studies suggesting that this cooling is part of natural climate variability rather than a direct result of human activities. The text also touches on debates within the climate science community regarding the causes of recent temperature changes, with some arguing that natural factors, such as solar activity and oceanic cycles, play a significant role. Additionally, the discussion extends to the broader implications of these climate changes, including potential impacts on weather patterns... | |

| | | James Hansen's latest paper "Global warming in the pipeline" (Hansen et al. (2023)) has already been heavily criticized in a lengthy comment by Michael Mann, author of the original IPCC 'hockey stick'. However Mann does not deal with Hansen's surprisingly high (4.8°C) new estimate of equilibrium climate sensitivity (ECS)[1]. This ECS estimate is 60% above... | ||
