§ |
The MOC is an
indicator of
|
ocean circulation changes in
|
|
response to global warming.
|
|
|
§ |
The MOC is projected to
|
|
|
slow down in the future.
|
|
|
§ |
It is due to the warming
|
|
and increased precipitation at
|
|
|
higher latitudes.
|
|
|
§ |
The weakened MOC will
|
|
help to reduce global
|
|
|
warming at higher latitude,
|
|
because less heat will be
|
|
transported there.
