The 49 pages that link to Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, each with the reason it gives.

• Atlantic OceanBroader topic: It links the Atlantic’s surface and deep waters, redistributing heat across the basin.

• Thermohaline circulationBroader topic: It is a major regional expression of density-driven overturning.

• Ocean circulationBroader topic: It is a major pathway for heat transport between the tropics and North Atlantic.

• Ocean stratificationBroader topic: Freshening and stronger upper-ocean layering may affect deep-water formation in the North Atlantic.

• Ocean heat transportBroader topic: Its northward upper branch carries substantial heat toward the North Atlantic.

• North Atlantic OceanBroader topic: Its northward heat transport shapes the North Atlantic’s climate and water structure.

• ClimatologyBroader topic: Its future strength and stability matter for regional climate projections.

• Tipping pointBroader topic: Its possible weakening or collapse is a prominent proposed climate tipping element.

• Abrupt climate changeBroader topic: Rapid weakening could reorganize regional temperatures and rainfall.

• Tipping points in the climate systemBroader topic: Freshwater input and warming may weaken its circulation, with consequences across regions.
