The Big Chill: Counterintuitive Global Warming effects

Nature magazine has a chilling articleย in this issue tracking the enui that seems to be overtaking the Gulfย Current.

It seems that as the ocean warms, it also becomesย less active. Thus, the Gulf Stream might ultimately stop flowing north, while theย once-icy Arctic waters will stop flowing south.ย This might be โ€œGood for Canadaโ€ (see next post), as Newfoundland suffers less the effect of the Arctic backflow, but it could equally be devastating for much of Northern Europe, which depends on the warm Gulf waters to moderateย itsย climate.
