More evidence of Gulf Stream Slowdown

Two papers just published by Rahmsdorf et al in Nature and Ezer in Global and Planetary Change  give more information on the Gulf Stream slowdown and of course that relates to coastal sea level.

The paper reference is Rahmstorf, S., Box, J., Feulner, G., Mann, M., Robinson, A., Rutherford, S., Schaffernicht, E. (2015): Exceptional twentieth-Century slowdown in Atlantic Ocean overturning circulation. Nature Climate Change (online) LINK
