One of the most ominous risks for Europe is that of a major change in Atlantic ocean currents. Recent science suggests it has been greatly underestimated in the past -including by me, having worked on it for over 30 years. Here my half-hour presentation in Vilnius last week! youtu.be/ZHNNW8c_FaA?...
Are you able to summarize briefly the new results please, and how the risk of this "tipping point" was wrongly estimated previously? Or link to a new paper? Thank you.
For a fictional treatment of the issue,
Kim Stanley Robinson's "Forty Signs of Rain" trilogy does a good job (and sadly, since it was before the 2008 financial crash, he has the reinsurance business pay for a lot of the mitigation work because it's cheaper for them than having to pay insurers.)
Is it ever modelled what happens to the AMOC when Greenland runs out of ice in millenia? Would it crank up again after that time, and at least 20-30m of sea level rise by then.
