Basically, what we need to do is think about not how to save the ocean, but instead how the ocean can actually help us in this fight against climate change. Already, the ocean is absorbing 25 to 30% of the CO2
Earth system models, ocean-atmosphere coupled models, and climate models with a special emphasis on the role of the ocean. Innovative modelling, combined with observational, theoretical studies concerning physical and biogeochemical processes in different time and space scales. Technologies associated with...
They maintain the ocean ecosystem by providing important nutrients for phytoplankton (浮游植物),microscopic organism (微生物) in the ocean,to grow as food for fish and other animals. Phytoplankton also carry out photosynthesis(光合作用) to keep carbon dioxide level low in the atmosphere to keep ...

Captura is part of a small yet expanding group of companies,seeking to apply the power of the ocean to naturally concentrate CO Climate science experts are increasingly convinced that vast quantities of CO, will need to be taken away from the atmosphere in order to avoid runaway climate ...
Today's disrupted seas, though, are just the inception of the ocean's transition. That's because the oceans are thetrue keeper of climate change: Most of the heat humanity traps on the planet gets soaked up by the ocean. And modern civilizationwon't stop saturating the atmospherewith heat...
3.2. Atmosphere and land variables The surface albedo is calculated as the ratio of the upwards to downwards shortwave radiation at the surface from the model outputs. The global mean surface albedo is 0.099 in the MMCO, lower than the value of 0.152 in the PI (Fig. 3). The widespread fo...
(极地附近的)Current, by far the largest current in the world.It is the world's climate engine, and it has kept the world from warming even more by drawing deep water from the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans, much of which has been in the deep ocean for hundreds of years, and ...
The Great Barrier Reef brings in 2 billion dollars per year to Australia, and a great deal more to other countries and territories of the world.Video Link: The Great Barrier ReefIf the carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere reach 800 ppm later this century as predicted, all the reefs of ...
