§ |
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.
