When you descend beyond 200 meters (656 feet), you venture into the deep seabed—a vast realm that extends to abyssal plains at depths ranging from 3,000 to 6,000 meters (up to 19,685 feet). The journey continues even deeper, as the #MarianaTrench plunges to an astonishing 11,000 meters (36,089 feet). These environments, shrouded in darkness and subjected to extreme pressure, harbor distinct forms of life and provide essential knowledge about Earth's geological and biological development. #Ocean

The Atlantic Ocean's most vital ocean current is showing troubling signs of reaching a disastrous tipping point. Earlier this week, 44 oceanographers from 15 countries published an open letter calling for urgent action in the face of the weakening circulation. “We don't really consider it low probability anymore,” oceanographer Stefan Rahmstorf told @LiveScience.

Here is Professor Stefan Rahmstorf presentation to the Arctic Council earlier this month on whether the AMOC is Shutting Down? - Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation.

AMOC shutting down could have a catastrophic impact on Northern Europe including more extreme weather events, but also on sealevels along north American coast, and global impacts with changes in precipitation.

[LiveScience] - "We don't really consider it low probability anymore": Collapse of key #Atlantic current could have catastrophic impacts.

Trouble is brewing in the #NorthAtlantic. Beneath the waves, the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (#AMOC), which includes the #GulfStream, acts as a planetary conveyor belt bringing nutrients, oxygen and heat north from tropical waters, while moving colder water south — a balancing act that keeps the Northern Hemisphere warm.
