"It may sound strange considering this summer’s multiple unrelenting heatwaves,
but a less-talked-about anomalous climate phenomenon is steadily gaining
attention: a giant cold patch has formed in the North Atlantic Ocean.
Dubbed the “cold blob” or “warming hole”, this vast tranche of water in the
subpolar North Atlantic south of Greenland is the only place in the world to
have cooled significantly since the 19th century. In fact, it has dropped by
nearly 1C since 1900; the plunge in temperature first started ringing alarm
bells in the scientific community around a decade ago due to its swiftness and
severity.
Not only could the cold blob itself have a significant impact on our climate
and weather systems, but its very existence potentially suggests that something
far more worrying is afoot in our oceans, according to a paper published in
May."
