Melting ice could slow vital Antarctic ocean current

Melting Antarctic ice sheets are slowing Earth's strongest ocean current, research reveals
Melting ice sheets are slowing the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the world's strongest ocean current, researchers have found. This melting has implications for global climate indicators, including sea level rise,
Melting Antarctic ice sheets could have serious impacts on world's strongest ocean current
The world's strongest ocean current could slow as melting Antarctic ice sheets flood it with fresh water, says a study warning of "severe" climate consequences.
Melting Antarctic ice sheets could slow ocean’s strongest current 20% by 2050
Melting Antarctic ice is weakening the world’s strongest ocean current, the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, according to research published in the journal Environmental Research Letters on Monday.
Global Warming Will Weaken Earth’s Strongest Ocean Current
A new study shows melting Antarctic ice changes the density of ocean layers around Antarctica, driving a slowdown of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current.
Melting Antarctic ice will slow the world’s strongest ocean current – and the global consequences are profound
Part of the system that pumps water, heat and nutrients around the globe is at risk. Climate change could slow the Antarctic Circumpolar Current down 20% by 2050.
The Great Ocean Slowdown: How Antarctic Ice Loss Is Reshaping the Climate
Melting Antarctic ice sheets are weakening the ACC, a vital ocean current that regulates global climate and ocean circulation. Scientists project a 20% slowdown by 2050, which could intensify climate extremes,
Melting Antarctic ice sheets will slow Earth’s strongest ocean current
Melting ice sheets are slowing the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the world’s strongest ocean current, researchers have found.This melting has implications for global climate indicators, including sea level rise,
Melting Antarctic ice sheets slowing Earth’s strongest ocean current, study finds
Estimates suggest Antarctic Circumpolar Current will slow by around 20 per cent by 2050 in high carbon emissions scenario
