Major blind spot in ocean carbon research could undermine global climate predictions
The report “Integrated Ocean Carbon Research: a vision primed for implementation” also lays out a roadmap to bolster international cooperation, strengthen ocean carbon monitoring, and update climate models accordingly. The ocean is one of our strongest climate allies, absorbing a large share of the carbon we emit. Yet we still lack a full understanding of how this natural defense functions – or how long it can endure. Coordinated global monitori…
PARIS – A new report by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), released on Monday 23, revealed important gaps in understanding how the oceans absorb and store carbon, key data for climate prediction. “The ocean is one of our biggest climate allies, [...]
Paris.- They are the largest carbon sink on the planet and yet we know very little about how this process works. The ocean stores about 25% of the world’s global CO2 emissions, but there are still “important lakes” in understanding, which “may call into question” climate predictions and thus compromise “effective mitigation and adaptation strategies”, according to UNESCO. Unesco’s Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) published a repo…
