Oscillatory sensitivity of Atlantic overturning to high-latitude forcing

The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) carries warm upper waters into northern highlatitudes and returns cold deep waters southward. Under anthropogenic greenhouse gas forcing the AMOC is expected to weaken due to high-latitude warming and freshening. Here, we show that the sensitivi...
