Unknown cold patch found in Atlantic
Scientists have identified a persistent "cold blob" in the North Atlantic near Greenland, which has cooled by up to 1 degree Celsius over recent decades. This phenomenon is linked to changes in the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a critical ocean current system that influences global heat distribution. If the AMOC continues to weaken, it could lead to significant climate impacts, including altered weather patterns, rising sea levels along the U.S. East Coast, and disruptions to marine ecosystems.
