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.
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...
But crooked scientists has grant money to earn and far left Guardian hacks have headlines to write. It’s a marriage made in heaven!
The Earth Energy Imbalance (EEI) is calibrated or “tuned” to match changes in ocean heat content. TOA radiation measurements need tuning. Given the AMO oscillation is 60-70 years long, is 20 years enough?
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.
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...
By Andy May Introduction to the “Climate Oscillations” series My last two posts, Musings on the AMO and The Bray Solar Cycle and AMO were fun to research and write,…
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.…
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 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 a solid observational foundation and...
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...
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 shown for decades: AMOC...
Who needs Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters when we have the BBC.
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 chance of a...
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 they have "medium confidence" that AMOC will...
