Le consensus scientifique est désormais bien établi : la circulation océanique se ralentit. En remontant vers l'Europe, les eaux chaudes des tropiques apportées par le Gulf Stream se refroidissent et se chargent en salinité. Plus lourdes que les couches inférieures, ces eaux plongent dans les profondeurs et retournent vers les tropiques en un véritable tapis roulant baptisé «circulation méridienne de retournement de l'Atlantique» (AMOC selon l'acronyme anglais). 1, record 2, French, - circulation%20m%C3%A9ridienne%20de%20retournement%20de%20l%27Atlantique

Que ce soit en surface ou en altitude, la circulation de l'air atmosphérique à l'échelle globale - celle de notre planète - peut être envisagée comme la résultante de deux mouvements conjugués : une circulation zonale qui, selon la zone méridienne considérée, progresse vers l'ouest ou vers l'est en suivant grossièrement la direction des parallèles terrestres, et une circulation méridienne qui se dirige tantôt vers les régions équatoriales, tantôt vers les régions polaires en suivant à peu près la direction des méridiens terrestres. Or, dans chacun des deux hémisphères, la circulation méridienne de l'air au sein de la zone méridienne intertropicale se poursuit continûment à travers un système particulier rassemblant de très vastes cellules convectives, que l'on appelle les cellules de Hadley. 4, record 9, French, - circulation%20m%C3%A9ridienne
