Anomalies in temperature and salinity that originate in the midlatitude North Atlantic can affect the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) in the Nordic Seas up to a decade later. A new study published in Communications Earth & Environment shows that the anomalies that travel northward with the Atlantic Water are an important part of the system,

The Atlantic Ocean did not spring into existence in a sudden tectonic snap; its earliest pulse can now be traced through a set of one-kilometer-long mud waves lying more than 3,000 feet below today’s seafloor some 250 miles west of Guinea-Bissau.
