Here are the two studies: Observational constraints project a ~50% AMOC weakening by the end of this century: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adx4298 Meridionally consistent decline in the observed western boundary contribution to the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adz7738
