About this market

No trades have been recorded on this market yet, so there is no market price for any outcome.

Trading closes on Dec 31, 2042. The result is confirmed by National Oceanography Centre.

This contract is based on the annual-mean strength of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) at 26.5°N, as measured by the RAPID-MOCHA-WBTS observing array and published by the National Oceanography Centre. The AMOC plays a central role in transporting heat and salt through the Atlantic Ocean, and sustained changes in its measured strength are associated with shifts in regional climate patterns, sea level along Atlantic coastlines, and large-scale ocean circulation dynamics.

Rules and timeline

Each outcome is its own contract. A Yes contract pays $1 if its outcome happens and $0 if not; a No contract pays the reverse. Because the contracts trade separately, their chances don't have to add up to 100%.
