Emissions corridors preserving the Atlantic ocean thermohaline circulation
The Atlantic thermohaline circulation (THC) transports large amounts of heat northward, acting as a heating system for the northern North Atlantic and north-western Europe. Paleo-reconstructions and a large number of model simulations have shown the THC to be stable only within certain limits beyond...
