EPOC Newsletter #4 now out!

What’s in EPOC Newsletter 4

EPOC Newsletter 4 covers the latest developments from across the project community. A new paper published in Nature, led by EPOC scientists at UCL, shows that Atlantic Ocean circulation remained active during the Last Glacial Maximum, with deep Atlantic water far warmer than previously thought. The newsletter also reports from the Edinburgh biogeochemical sensors workshop, which brought together EPOC researchers to explore how carbon and nutrient measurements can be integrated into AMOC transport mooring arrays. Media coverage features prominently too: the Channel 4 News segment on the RAPID array reached a primetime UK audience and sparked significant public interest in AMOC science.

The newsletter is available to download as a PDF below.

EPOC Newsletter 4, Mar 2026 (PDF, 3.3MB)

Covers new EPOC results, a major cross-disciplinary workshop, and growing media attention on AMOC science.

  • New Nature paper shows AMOC remained active during the Last Glacial Maximum, 20000
    years ago, with deep Atlantic water far warmer than previously thought
  • Report from the Edinburgh Biogeochemistry workshop. 48 scientists from 22
    institutions discussed adding oxygen, carbon and nutrient sensors to
    AMOC mooring arrays
  • Coverage of EPOC research reaching the public via Channel 4 News and an event at Glasgow Science Centre
  • The AMOCatlas open data tool, bringing together AMOC monitoring array observations in a single repository
