and identifying trends and variability in ocean carbon sinks. Recent studies have provided valuable insights into the carbon exchange between the atmosphere and the ocean. One study estimated that ...

A new B.C.-led study has mapped 274 carbon hot spots found on Canada's sea floor. Flat, cold and seemingly devoid of life — ...

The ZOBLUC Project explores how Baltic Sea seagrass meadows store CO₂, restore ecosystems, and engage communities in ...

Kiel. How can seagrass help combat climate change? This question is the focus of the new research project ZOBLUC (“Zostera marina as a Blue Carbon Sink in the Baltic Sea”), which now starts under the ...

The GEOMAR Helmholtz Centre for Ocean Research Kiel ... a new project to study the role of seagrass meadows as natural carbon sinks and to develop strategies for their conservation and restoration.

Prime Minister James Marape has reiterated his consistent call that big carbon emitters of the world have a “moral obligation ...

Dartmouth researchers say zooplankton could help bury carbon in the ocean. The key to that process? Sprinkling clay dust on ...

Another critical aspect of chemical oceanography is the ongoing assessment of the ocean's carbon sink. Research indicates that the ocean has absorbed approximately 25% of total anthropogenic CO2 ...

This chemical reaction makes the ocean the planet’s largest carbon sink, a term referring to a natural or man-made reservoir that absorbs more carbon than it releases. The new technology aims to ...

Once the phytoplankton multiply and reach a sufficient amount, the controlled sinking trigger activates, and the substrate, together with the attached carbon, sinks to the bottom of the ocean for ...
