America's East Coast is predicted to experience rising sea levels, with the potential for acceleration due to the weakening of the AMOC ocean current system.
Antarctic Bottom Water warming in the western North Atlantic has led to a 2.8 mm sea level rise from 2000-2020, highlighting the impact on local sea levels in the region.
Scientists fear that even the weakening of the AMOC system could have far-reaching effects, altering weather patterns, impacting marine life, changing temperatures, and increasing flooding.
