The current state-of-the-art climate models when combined together suggest that the anthropogenic weakening of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has already begun since the mid-1980s. However, continuous direct observational records during the past two decades have shown remarkable resilience of the AMOC. To shed light on this apparent contradiction, here we attempt to attribute the interdecadal variation of the historical AMOC to the anthropogenic and natural signals, by analyzing multiple climate and surface-forced ocean model simulations together with direct observational data.

Background: The worldwide incidence of multiple sclerosis (MS) is estimated at 0.5-10 cases per 100,000 person-years and is probably increasing. In 2014, a previous study estimated the incidence of multiple sclerosis in Uruguay at 1.

Article Synopsis
  • Marine bony fish play a crucial role in Earth's carbon cycle, contributing significantly to both the biological pump and the marine inorganic carbon cycle, but uncertainties in their contributions limit their incorporation into climate models.
  • Recent studies indicate that global fish biomass estimates have been revised upwards significantly, suggesting that marine fish produce large amounts of carbonate (ichthyocarbonate), potentially surpassing contributions from other marine organisms like coccolithophores.
  • Stable carbon isotope analyses reveal that a large percentage of ichthyocarbonate originates from dietary carbon, and when scaled, the increased production is likely to enhance fish contributions to the biological pump, highlighting an important link between carbonate production and carbon export, especially in the context of climate change.

The northern Gulf of Mexico (GoM) is a region strongly influenced by river discharges of freshwater and nutrients, which promote a highly productive coastal ecosystem that host commercially valuable marine species. A variety of climate and weather processes could potentially influence the river discharges into the northern GoM. However, their impacts on the coastal ecosystem remain poorly described.
