Is the Gulf Stream system a threat to life?
The findings from recent research into what is known as the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) – or the Gulf Stream system – have presented just such an opportunity.
Where does the warm water from the Gulf Stream go?
And the way we know it is this: the Gulf Stream brings warm water from the tropics all the way to the North Atlantic, where its warmth is released into the atmosphere, thereby helping to regulate global climate and weather patterns.
What happens to the Gulf Stream if carbon dioxide rises?
If, however, carbon dioxide emissions continue to rise – and as a consequence, heat the air around the North Atlantic – the water in the Gulf Stream system would not be able to cool down, so would not be able to sink and circulate back to the tropics.
Where does the Gulf Stream go to recirculate?
It carries warm seawater all the way from the Gulf of Mexico to the eastern coastlines of the U.S. and Newfoundland, then across the Atlantic ocean, where it splits in two – crossing to Northern Europe and recirculating off West Africa. The Gulf Stream is a part of the global ocean conveyor belt.

What would happen if this warmth-bearing current was cut off? Well, it would stop bringing warm waters to those areas.
