This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Deep ocean cooling and freshening from Subpolar North Atlantic reaches Subtropics at 26.5°N” by Chomiak et al. (2025). Chomiak et al. (2025) identifies a surprising cooling and freshening trend in the deep waters of the Subtropical North Atlantic, specifically at the... Continue Reading →
The Atlantic’s ‘Conveyor Belt’ is Weakening Faster Than Predicted Once Model Biases Are Corrected
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Observational constraints project a ~50% AMOC weakening by the end of this century” by Portmann et al. (2026). Portmann et al. (2026) published in Science Advances utilizes observational constraint methods to refine future projections of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a critical system of ocean...

The North Atlantic Deep Western Boundary Current is Faltering
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Meridionally consistent decline in the observed western boundary contribution to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation” by Xing et al. (2026). Xing et al. (2026) analyzes long-term observational data from four major mooring arrays to evaluate the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). By... Continue Reading →
Melting of the Arctic and Greenland ice sheets triggers rapid subsurface warming in the North Atlantic and Nordic Seas
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Rapid subsurface warming in the subpolar North Atlantic from freshening" by Menviel et al. (2026). Menzviel et al. (2026) study explores how increased freshwater from melting Arctic ice and the Greenland Ice Sheet triggers rapid subsurface warming in the subpolar North Atlantic.... Continue Reading →
The Arctic’s ‘Cooling Machine’ Isn’t Broken, But Reaching Its Limit
This blog post and the “Deep Dive” podcast, created by NotebookLM, are based on “Increased ocean heat transport to the central Arctic despite a well working Barents Sea Cooling Machine" by Eisner et al. (2026). This study uses the SODA4 reanalysis to examine a forty-year increase in ocean heat transport from the Barents Sea into the central Arctic. Researchers... Continue Reading →
