In a recent open letter, researchers warned that a warmer Arctic could lead to cold waves across Northern Europe – due to “complex feedback mechanisms”.
the perceived weakening of the AMOC may be nothing more than an artifact of data misinterpretation.
This is good climate news that will hopefully dissuade people from climate doomism.”
...the supposed AMOC tipping point will not occur until 1758 years from now, in the year 3782 AD
All these changes were the result of natural processes. There is no evidence that these will change in future.
“[I]f these models cannot reproduce past variations, why should we be so confident about their ability to predict the future?”
ANY estimate of the timing of a “tipping point” must take the uncertainties into account, which are so substantial that they are all unsound when made.
Data collected directly in the Atlantic Ocean thus do not provide any support for the IPCC's forecasts of an ongoing collapse of the AMOC.
In fact, based on the limited data, the authors have no way of knowing whether the AMOC speeds up and down cyclically on a multidecadal or multi-century basis, or whether a steady state is the norm.

By contrast, recent empirical studies have challenged the “weakening” hypothesis.

12,900 years ago the North Atlantic Current failed, likely due to the emptying of an enormous glacial lake. This catastrophic lake failure is believed to have disrupted ocean currents, which led to an abrupt return to ice...
Yet another 3 recent journal publications show there’s no Atlantic tipping point taking place.
A recent flurry of scientific publications refute climate model claims of a weakening Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC).
