🌊 The Arctic is changing fast.
Retreating sea ice and warmer Atlantic waters are shifting north, boosting dense water formation.
This helps keep the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (#AMOC) flowing, even as other regions slow down. #ClimateChange

Collapse of key Atlantic currents may be held off by newly-discovered back-up system, study finds
Rising temperatures in the North Atlantic are slowing vital currents, but a new process in the Arctic could save the day, scientists say.

Antarctica’s melt affects everybody but won’t hit every coastline the same.

Sea level doesn’t rise at the same rate everywhere – we mapped where Antarctica’s ice melt would have the biggest impact
Understanding what happens to Antarctica’s ice matters, because as it melts, sea levels rise, affecting lives and economies around the world.

Remember the 2007–2008 breakups of the Wilkins and Voyeykov shelves in #Antarctica?
A study reveals that large-scale calving events in Antarctic ice shelves are preceded by prolonged amplifications in flexural stress, driven by ocean swell and reduced sea-ice barriers.

The loss of sea ice enhances swell-induced flexural stress in Antarctic ice shelves before large-scale calving events, according to satellite observations and swell-induced flexural stress modelling.
