AMOC Media Coverage: New Scientist Video Reaches 2 Million Views New Scientist’s The Climate Disaster That May Have Already Begun has reached over 2 million views in its first week. Written and presented by Dr Russell Arnott (Seascape Consultants, EPOC), the video was filmed at the National Oceanography Centre (NOC), Southampton, an EPOC partner institution, and […]

EPOC Annual Meeting 2026: Toulouse Round-Up EPOC’s 2026 Annual Meeting ran from 25 to 27 August at CERFACS and Météo France in Toulouse, bringing together the consortium along with invited scientists for two days of science presentations, followed by a third day dedicated to collaborative work across the project’s work packages. The EPOC consortium and […]

Iceland-Faroe Ridge moorings recovery

Iceland-Faroe Ridge moorings recovered, catching a rare glimpse of the AMOC’s overflow water forming   EPOC researchers have recovered four of five moorings from the Iceland-Faroe Ridge. The recovery closes out a year-long deployment watching one of the least-observed branches of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). As well as recovering the moorings, the expedition […]

New papers from EPOC’s Arctic gateway observations

Sea ice North of Svalbard acts as a physical barrier to satellite observation of the ocean surface while also providing an obstacle to the deployment of moorings.

New papers from EPOC’s Arctic gateway observations Two new papers by EPOC researchers report findings on Arctic Atlantic Water; the warm, saline current that flows northward through the Fram Strait and drives heat exchange across the entire Arctic system. The papers, published in Deep Sea Research Part II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, are led by Rebecca […]

Greenland-Scotland Ridge observations: EPOC at ASOF Bergen 2026

Observing the Greenland-Scotland Ridge : EPOC at ASOF 2026 The Greenland-Scotland Ridge (GSR) determines how much warm, salty Atlantic water reaches the Nordic Seas and the Arctic, and how much dense water spills back south to feed the deep limb of the AMOC. Whether those flows are steady or changing is a difficult question to […]

AMOC Public Engagement: Eye on the Ocean, Glasgow

NOC and UCL researchers take part in AMOC public engagement at the palaeo corner, Glasgow Science Centre

Eye on the Ocean: AMOC public engagement at Glasgow On Saturday 21 February, Glasgow Science Centre hosted Eye On The Ocean, a public ocean science showcase. The event coincided with the arrival of AGU Ocean Sciences Meeting 2026 (OSM26) delegates in the city and the Scottish school half-term holiday. It was too good of an […]

EPOC workshop brings biogeochemical sensors to AMOC mooring arrays

EPOC workshop delegates on the roof of the National Museum of Scotland, Edinburgh, February 2026

Biogeochemical sensors workshop held in Edinburgh Marine biogeochemists, physical oceanographers, and mooring engineers came together in Edinburgh on 20th February 2026 for the first workshop of its kind. The focus was biogeochemical sensors, and specifically whether the mooring arrays that monitor the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) could also carry them. If so, these arrays […]
