Description:Based on 19 experiments using five models of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5, our study (1) finds a shortened and weakened interdecadal variability (IV) of Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) over a future intense warming period in the 22nd and 23rd centuries, and proposes that warming-induced changes of oceanic dynamics may be responsible for these changes of AMOC-IV. As the key modulator of long-term climate variation, AMOC-IV and its response to global warming are important for future climate projection.
