AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoOcean Monitoring: The U.S. NSF has paused its plan to dismantle parts of the Ocean Observatories Initiative after bipartisan backlash, keeping key buoys and underwater gear running off Washington, Oregon, Alaska, and in the Atlantic including near Greenland. AMOC & Greenland Melt: New modeling suggests the Atlantic “cold blob” and AMOC slowdown tied to Greenland meltwater would likely weaken gradually and could reverse if warming stops—pushing back on fears of an abrupt, irreversible collapse. North Atlantic Heat Link: Separate reporting ties the cold blob to reduced ocean heat transport and warns it may be helping drive longer, more intense European heatwaves. Greenland Tsunami Lesson: Scientists reconstruct a 650-foot mega-tsunami in East Greenland’s Dickson Fjord, tracing it to glacier retreat undermining a mountain slope—another stark reminder of how a changing ice landscape can trigger extreme hazards. Critical Minerals Push: Greenland’s mining sector keeps moving: AnorTech and Greenland Mines close a share exchange, while Critical Metals Corp buys an ice-strengthened vessel to support Tanbreez work in Qaqortoq. Policy & Power: A Greenland-related diplomatic thread resurfaces as Canada’s Mark Carney urges “middle powers” to stand with Greenland and Denmark against tariff pressure.
