🌊 New research finds the Gulf Stream could weaken due to climate change, impacting Europe's climate. During the last ice age, stronger winds powered a stronger Gulf Stream. Could weakening winds mean a cooler Europe? 🌍 #ClimateChange #UCLGeography #OceanCurrents

Congratulations to everyone on their A level results! Perhaps we'll be seeing some of you at UCL Geography and Royal Holloway Geography in September!

And there it is: the highest ocean heat content in the Gulf on record.
