Recent studies indicate that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a vital part of the global ocean's circulation, is weakening. This current moves warm, salty water from the Gulf of Mexico to the North Atlantic, helping to keep temperatures mild in Western Europe. Examination of past ocean temperature records reveals a 15% decrease in the AMOC's strength since 1950, which is supported by current buoy data showing a considerable slowdown in the western Atlantic.
