Short summary
This research investigates the interactions between the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) and the Antarctic Ice Sheet, which are both recognized as critical climate tipping elements in the Earth system. We conduct a computer simulation with artificial freshwater input in the North Atlantic to collapse the AMOC for 1500 years. Our findings show no destabilization of the Antarctic Ice Sheet induced by changes in the Southern Ocean during this period.
