研究发现大西洋的气候调节水流 不太可能在本世纪崩溃, 尽管它仍然在变弱。 Study finds Atlantic climate-regulating current unlikely to collapse this century, though it's still weakening.

一项新的自然研究表明,大西洋环绕环流对气候调节至关重要,尽管由于气候变化而减弱,但本世纪不大可能崩溃。 A new study in Nature indicates that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), crucial for climate regulation, is unlikely to collapse this century despite weakening due to climate change. 研究人员对极端气候情景使用了34个计算机模型,发现到2100年没有完全关闭,尽管削弱仍然可能造成严重的气候影响。 Researchers used 34 computer models for extreme climate scenarios and found no total shutdown by 2100, though weakening could still cause significant climate impacts. 南大洋的次生洋流可能有助于维持AMOC。 A secondary current in the Southern Ocean may help sustain the AMOC.
