The AMOC is complex. It has fluctuated for millennia. It may weaken modestly over this century under certain emissions scenarios. That is not the same as a Hollywood-style catastrophe.

Wrong, The Independent, the Atlantic Current Isn’t on the Brink of Collapse
The Independent declaring a looming catastrophe based on one modeling study doesn’t represent balanced, informed science reporting. Rather, it is acting as a promoter for an alarming, unlikely climate narrative, which…
AMOC To Collapse–Part 98
But crooked scientists has grant money to earn and far left Guardian hacks have headlines to write. It’s a marriage made in heaven!
Is The Gulf Stream Really Collapsing? Debunking Another Climate Doomsday Claim
The idea that global warming could paradoxically shut down the Gulf Stream, plunging Europe into a new cold spell—a scenario popularized by the film The Day After Tomorrow—is a powerful narrative.
New Study Contradicts The Alarmist Narrative That Says the AMOC Is Catastrophically Collapsing
Alarmists claim that, due to anthropogenic climate change (AGW), the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is weakening to the point that it’s on the verge of collapsing. It’s claimed this will…
The Bray Solar Cycle and AMO
By Andy May My last post on the AMO and HadCRUT5 generated some interest and some criticism. As I explained, there are two common methods of computing the AMO index.…
Musings on the AMO
Does the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) play a role in global warming? Or does global warming affect the AMO? We take a look.
CNN’s AMOC Alarm Debunked: Ocean Current Collapse Claims Crumble Under Scrutiny
CNN’s article on the AMOC is yet another example of how mainstream media misleads the public by dressing up uncertain science as inevitability. By leaning on AMOC modeling that lacks…
No, NewsBreak, the Supposed “Cold Blob” in the Atlantic Isn’t a Harbinger of the Atlantic Ocean Current Collapsing
Rather than presenting a balanced view of the scientific debate, the media continually pushes alarming narratives intended not to inform but rather to generate fear. Yet the stories almost always…
Why Isn’t the Mainstream Media Reporting that Ocean Circulation Is Doing Well?
The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation is not collapsing, is not slowing catastrophically, and is not about to trigger an Ice Age. The latest scientific research confirms what observational data has…
AMOC Alarmism Doesn’t Stick (Wunsch caution)
One perennial fear is a potential collapse of a crucial system of ocean currents known as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). A few scientists are ‘out there’ predicting an increasing…
The “Collapsing Gulf Stream” Scare is Back—Again
This wouldn’t be so bad if they admitted the uncertainty. Instead, the article plays a game of “it’s probably not happening, but it totally could!” For instance, the IPCC says…
Climate Alarmist Stefan Rahmstorf Struggles with the Reality of Uncertainty
We should finally stop scaring people in the Atlantic, it doesn’t work with enlightened citizens like you, dear readers.
When Scientists, Skeptics and Eco-Loons All Agree, Except for Catastrophic Storytelling
The current slowing of the AMOC is simply part of a natural oscillating dynamic. Its current slowdown will soon increase Arctic sea-ice and lower temperatures naturally without crazy Net Zero…
Climate Researchers Warn: Warmer Climate Could Lead To “Cold Waves Across Northern Europe”!
In a recent open letter, researchers warned that a warmer Arctic could lead to cold waves across Northern Europe – due to “complex feedback mechanisms”.
Gulf Stream Collapsing Again!
So we only have data since 2004, and the year to year variations are large. To pretend that such a short series is in any way significant is not only…
Debunking the Myth of a Weakening AMOC: How Geomagnetic Field Changes Skewed the Data
the perceived weakening of the AMOC may be nothing more than an artifact of data misinterpretation.
AMOC Collapse Depends Entirely On Models…Will Occur Sometime Between Now And Infinity
A “collapse” of the AMOC (Atlantic overturning circulation) cannot be “calculated” at all.
Author Of New Paper: No AMOC Collapse…”Should Dissuade People From Climate Doomism”
This is good climate news that will hopefully dissuade people from climate doomism.”
