Dr Audrey Morley is a leading voice in Irish climate science. Her internationally leading research on reconstructing past ocean climates, for which she has developed robust innovative climate proxies, was published in Nature Communications in winter 2024. In this article, Cois Coiribe explores Dr Morley’s research and insights into the implications of ocean currents and temperatures. Her work on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a crucial part of the global effort to monitor and understand changes that could affect our climate in a major way.
