In the Atlantic Ocean, a giant 'conveyor belt' carries warm waters from the tropics into the North Atlantic, where they cool and sink and then return southwards in the deep ocean. This circulation pattern is an important player in the global climate, regulating weather patterns in the Arctic, Europe, and around the world.

The ocean conveyor belt is driven, among other things, by temperature differences in the various ocean regions. Thus the water in the North Atlantic off the coasts of Europe and Greenland cools down. Due to the resulting increase in density of the cooled water, it becomes heavier and sinks towards the ocean floor.

Jun 13, 2022Climate change is slowing down the conveyor belt of ocean currents that brings warm water from the tropics up to the North Atlantic. Our research, published today (June 6) in Nature Climate Change, looks at the profound consequences to global climate if this Atlantic conveyor collapses entirely. We found the collapse of this system - called ...

The conveyor belt begins on the surface of the ocean near the pole in the North Atlantic. Here, the water is chilled by arctic temperatures. It also gets saltier because when sea ice forms, the salt does not freeze and is left behind in the surrounding water.

AbstractLinked, abrupt changes of North Atlantic deep water formation, North Atlantic sea ice extent, and widespread climate occurred repeatedly during the last ice age cycle and beyond in response to changing freshwater fluxes and perhaps other causes. This paradigm, developed and championed especially by W.S. Broecker, has repeatedly proven to be successfully predictive as well as ...

A global conveyor belt This Atlantic current is also called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC. It works like a colossal conveyor belt. It carries warm water along the Atlantic Ocean surface, moving from south to north. Near Greenland, the current makes a U-turn. Then the cold water sinks and flows south again.

A "conveyor belt" in the Atlantic Ocean appears to be slowing down. And that could have a big impact on the climate, although it's not clear just what that impact might be.The conveyor belt is the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation—AMOC for short. Water at the surface travels northward, parallel to the American coastline, then curls over to Europe.

The ocean's conveyor ap- pears to be driven by the salt left behind as the result of water-vapor transport through the at- mosphere from the Atlantic to the Pacific basin. A byproduct of its operation is the heat that maintains the anomolously warm winter air tem- peratures enjoyed by northern Europe.

As part of the ocean conveyor belt, warm water from the tropical Atlantic moves poleward near the surface where it gives up some of its heat to the atmosphere. This process partially moderates the cold temperatures at higher latitudes. As the warm water gives up its heat it becomes more dense and sinks.
