Sea Ice Returns, But So Does Chaos: The AMOC Collapse Scenarios

In this ClimateGenn episode I speak with researcher, Rene van Westen. We discuss his recent paper looking at how the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) responds in three different carbon emissions scenarios. This work builds on his – and colleagues – previous research that looked at establishing the conditions for the AMOC to collapse.René et al's findings shed new light on the risks we are facing from this vital ocean circulation in the Atlantic that connects to the global climate system. The research paper can be accessed here: https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2025GL114611
