Ocean currents play a large role in global weather, and a slowdown in the Atlantic could mean serious weather changes, particularly in Europe and North America.

Oceans cover more than 70% of Earth's surface and hold enormous potential to generate clean electricity through ocean currents. ... Calculated average power density off SE North America (Florida ...

This deep ocean current has remained in a relatively stable state for thousands of ... Study warns of 'irreversible transition' in ocean currents that could rapidly freeze parts of North America.

Because the currents are a huge source of heat redistribution globally, a shutdown could have a complex array of consequences, from rainfall disruptions in the southern hemisphere, to even greater sea ...

As warm water currents move north, they typically turn back south as it gets cooler and heavier. Added freshwater from the melting ice is causing this turn to be slower because of reduced salinity.
