#ICYMI our Ocean Tipping Points webinar is now available for replay! 🍿🗣️🌊 youtube.com/watch?v=pmz-... #COP30 #TippingPoints #Oceanscience

"We know if there's a big anomaly in this current, you get massive consequences"@channel4news.bsky.social The voyage may be finished, but the science continues to further understand how #AMOC weakening influences global weather & climate patterns. Full report here: www.channel4.com/news/the-key...

🌊Online Ocean Tipping Points talk🗣️ Next Monday we’re hosting a panel of experts to discuss Ocean Tipping Points, as part of #COP30 Virtual Ocean Pavilion webinar series.

AMOC in density space, heat and freshwater transports, and 2D velocity fields at 26N have been updated to March 2024. They are freely available on our website at rapid.ac.uk

The latest AMOC time series was released today! The overall picture suggests the weakening trend in the AMOC has remained consistent. NOC's Dr Ben Moat says “It is crucial to continue observing the AMOC through to at least 2034 to ascertain its trend.” Download the latest data: www.rapid.ac.uk

Thanks to @whoi.edu for hosting this vital AMOC (Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation) meeting, which we were delighted to attend along with experts from across the world.

AMOC in density space, heat and freshwater transports, and 2D velocity fields at 26N have been updated to February 2023. They are freely available on our website at rapid.ac.uk

We published a signal-to-noise analysis of AMOC observations in GRL. TLDR: Direct observations (RAPID) of the AMOC do show a decline in line with climate model projected weakening (~1 Sv/decade) but the noise is still very large in comparison to the signal. Paper: doi.org/10.1029/2025...

We are hiring! Interested in better understanding how the AMOC has changed, and how it might change in the future? Have a look at our new post funded as part of the EU EPOC and TipESM projects. Closing date 27th April jobs.reading.ac.uk/Job/JobDetai...

Interested in the MOC? Please consider submitting an abstract to our symposium on the Meridional Overturning Circulation at the IAMAS-IACS-IAPSO Joint Assembly in Busan, Republic of Korea, from July 20-25, 2025. The abstract deadline is February 15, 2025: www.baco-25.org @benmoat.bsky.social

NOC's Dr Ben Moat (@benmoat.bsky.social) and Dr Tillys Petit feature in a recent BBC News article all about the importance of monitoring the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (#AMOC). 🌊 Read it here 📰 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We have successfully completed the RAPID 26N western boundary expedition DY186. Many thanks to the crew of the RRS Discovery for helping to deliver the science. @noc.ac.uk

Thats the last of our tall moorings recovered. In the next six months we will calibrate the measurements and then release the next 26N AMOC time series update. @noc.ac.uk

On DY186 Maria De La Fuente Ruiz is measuring ocean oxygen levels. This is important as oxygen is an indicator to the health of our oceans. As sea temperatures increase, oxygen 'dead zones' can be created because warm water cannot hold as much oxygen. This can prove deadly to all marine life. 🧪⚠️

Chris Cardwell is an Electronic Engineer who is working on a prototype remote telemetry system for use on the RAPID moorings and in the wider oceanographic community. Outside of the current expedition, he is found developing novel oceanographic sensors, samplers and observing systems. @noc.ac.uk

Being an RSE isnt always just sitting at your desk. This week I aided in the deployment of the RAPID 26N WB2 sensor mooring for monitoring the change in the AMOC by optimising the tools used to verify and log the sensors going on to the mooring, all whilst aboard RRS Discovery.

A telemetry system has been deployed on the RAPID 26N WB2 western boundary mooring to enable periodic data updates. @noc.ac.uk

📸 NOC's Dr Ben Moat (@benmoat.bsky.social) links up live to Forest Heights Academy school in Abaco, Bahamas onboard #RRSDiscovery.

Mobilisation of the RRS Discovery in Fort Lauderdale is complete. We will sail in a few hours to service the RAPID 26N westen boundary mooring array. @nocnews.bsky.social @nocmarinephys.bsky.social

The next RAPID 26N AMOC expedition will sail from Fort Lauderdale on the 11th December 2024. Updates to follow. @nocnews.bsky.social @nocmarinephys.bsky.social

Did you catch NOC on ITV News last night? 📺 Science Correspondent Martin Stew shone the spotlight on the 20th anniversary of our RAPID programme! Read and watch interviews with Dr Ben Moat and Sunke Trace-Kleeberg here: lnkd.in/drPDq4yn

AMOC data at 26N: updated to February 2023 are now freely available on our website at rapid.ac.uk
