AMOC: The Atlantic’s Hidden Tipping Point

#FYI #PaulBeckwith video lecture and literature review #AMOC #AmocShutdown

"- wind driven flow of water in the Southern Hemisphere would keep the AMOC flow slightly above zero
- havoc would still be wreaked on the Earth
- this new paper is not in disagreement with previous work, but adds to our understanding of the AMOC"

Is the AMOC really more Resilient than we Think? Unfortunately, Nope…

@rahmstorf

Does anyone here know how or when AMOC is restarted after a shutdown?
How it used to get restarted in past climate changes. And how that restart would play out under our unusual changed factors?

I was thinking that maybe, a restart requires all Milankovic cycles to sufficiently favour Northern Hemisphere. And the process would be that sufficiently warmer summer temperatures over the Northern North Atlantic manage to evaporate enough ocean water for it to become saltier – and that would kickstart convection in place, with strictly local conditions as the first engine.

All 3 Milankovic cycles sufficiently favouring Northern Hemisphere, that's in about 120,000 years....
