Study: Atlantic Current Could Recover, Effects Persist Centuries

A Danish Meteorological Institute study found that the Atlantic Ocean’s AMOC may regain strength if global warming reverses, with no irreversible collapse indicated by the model. Recovery could take centuries, while climate and sea-level effects may persist; melting of the Greenland ice sheet would not be reversed, and an outside researcher cautioned that real-world stability may be lower than the model suggests.
