This ‘finger print’ of an AMOC slowdown is physically understood ( Zhang 2008 ) and visible not just for the satellite era shown above, but also the reanalysis data (Fig. In the real ocean that is not an observed quantity. So what is this whiplash about? It has to be taken from model simulations, the so-called reanalysis.

That’s because the parties to the London Convention and London Protocol are meeting from October 28 to November 1 in London to discuss, among other things, governance of ocean alkalinity enhancement and ocean sinking of biomass (e.g. Some are land-based, while others use the ocean. seaweed) for carbon storage.

The Sabin Center wrapped up Climate Week NYC last Friday with an event exploring the opportunities and challenges posed by ocean-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR). As evidenced by the 150-plus people in attendance, ocean CDR is attracting growing attention as a possible climate change mitigation option. ground rock) into the ocean?

In a blog post last month, I wrote about the growing interest in ocean-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR), and the complex legal issues it raises. Much of the legal complexity surrounding ocean CDR stems from the fact that the ocean is a shared resource in which all countries, both coastal and landlocked, have an interest.

There was little discussion, either in the written statements or at the oral hearing, of so-called “marine geoengineering” activities that seek to use the ocean to combat climate change. The second category of marine geoengineering activities, known as solar radiation management or modification (SRM), do not directly target GHGs.

Greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide are great absorbers of heat radiation coming from the Earth’s surface. 4] An increase in global temperature leads to melting of the ice caps which causes the ocean to expand and sea level to rise. should be.

Net atmospheric warming is problematic for a number of reasons – it leads to crop and vegetation stress which threatens our food security, it causes more intense dry seasons which lead to bigger wildfires that cause severe economic and environmental damage, and it leads to rising oceans levels which threaten existing infrastructure.
