Anthropogenic global warming/climate change or ocean currents run AMOC? Will someone please kick over a rock and bring Al Gore out of exile to explain all of this (sarc)? PO2 (Join to see) COL Mikel J. Burroughs LCpl (Join to see) Sgt Kelli Mays
REPORT: AMOC slowdowns have long been suspected as the cause of the climate swings during the last ice age, which lasted from 110,000 to 15,000 years ago, but never definitively shown. The new study “is the best demonstration that this indeed happened,” says Jerry McManus, a paleo-oceanographer at Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, and a study author. “It is very convincing evidence,” adds Andreas Schmittner, a climate scientist at Oregon State University, Corvallis. “We did not know that the circulation changed during these shorter intervals.”

CPO Andy Carrillo, MS this should be a major topic of discussion during the POTHUS debate. I am awaiting the outcome, to see who is going to be the advocate of global cooling/warming.

Posted on a similar thread: Considering the clickbait headline and author's profound misunderstanding (or willful mischaracterization) of the study in question, it's hardly worth the server space to post it. The study looked at abrupt, regional climate changes during the last ice age in order to determine how ocean circulation contributed. It's not about current events (no pun intended).

You are totally spot on! And then what doesn't comport to their dogma, they construct 'straw dogs' or other distractions. SMSgt Jeff Samuelson

Some do not believe we are in global warming therefore cannot flip back to global cooling...The Earth is constantly changing, evolving and moving....We the people of the Earth are constantly putting things into our atmosphere, cutting more and more trees, there seem to be more and more forest fires.....all of this changes things...I don't think we'll really know about our climate and the changing state of it...I do not think scientist know enough about space...our atmosphere and other things to determine such things yet.
