Meltwater from Greenland and the Arctic is weakening ocean circulation, speeding up warming down south
The Greenland ice sheet will continue melting over the coming century, possibly raising global sea level by about 10 cm. If this additional meltwater is included in climate projections, the overturning circulation will weaken faster. It could be 30% weaker by 2040.
