Decelerating Atlantic meridional overturning circulation main cause of future west European summer atmospheric circulation changes

We use state-of-the-art global climate models and observations to show that the projected higher pressures over the British Isles due to global warming are part of an atmospheric response to the decelerating Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) causing a reduction in the associated nor...
