We are pleased to announce the official publication of the Antarctica InSync Science Plan! This important milestone has been achieved through the outstanding collaboration, dedication, and expertise o...

This study estimates that Arctic deltas contain vast amounts of soil organic carbon (57.7 Pg) and soil nitrogen (3.8 Pg). This highlights the importance of these vulnerable permafrost landscapes at th...

Post-2009, reduced sea ice in the Arctic led to a sharp decline in fixed-nitrogen concentrations, which may have been due to increased benthic denitrification on the Arctic shelves, according to obser...

Climate Dynamics - The air-sea CO2 flux FCO2 is an important component of the global carbon cycle and understanding its response to climate change is crucial to adjust mitigation pathways....

The Carbon to Sea Initiative, with guidance and support from a steering committee, will be hosting a workshop from June 29-July 4 to develop guidelines for biogeochemical model skill assessment, align...

Here is a great resource for anyone working on ocean carbon: Jiang et al. (2026) compiled a comprehensive synthesis of data products for ocean carbonate chemistry — all in one place for you! The paper...

Der Ozean absorbiert derzeit etwa ein Viertel des vom Menschen produzierten CO2 und bremst so die globale Erwärmung. Der Klimawandel verändert diese wichtige Fähigkeit jedoch. Wie genau sich die Kohlenstoffsenke im Ozean in den kommenden Jahrzehnten entwickeln wird, kann bisher jedoch nicht eindeutig gesagt werden. Dafür fehlen wichtige wissenschaftliche Daten aus einigen Meeren der Erde. Zu diesem Schluss kommt die Zwischenstaatliche Ozeanographische Kommission der UNESCO in ihrem aktuellen Bericht. Prof. Judith Hauck vom Alfred-Wegener-Institut hat an dem Bericht mitgearbeitet. 

Abstract. As the largest active carbon reservoir on Earth, the ocean is a cornerstone of the global carbon cycle, playing a pivotal role in modulating ocean health and the Earth's climate system. Unde...

Abstract. We discuss the “monitoring, reporting and verification” (MRV) strategy of Enhanced Weathering (EW) based on carbon accounting and argue that in open systems such as arable land, this approac...

Alkalinity enhancement in subduction regions and the global ocean: efficiency, earth system feedbacks, and scenario sensitivity, Nagwekar, Tanvi, Danek, Christopher, Seifert, Miriam, Hauck, Judith

Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) is increasingly considered as a marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) strategy with the potential cobenefit of mitigating ocean acidification (OA), but this remains p...

The warming impact of hydrogen has been “overlooked” in projections of climate change, authors of the latest “global hydrogen budget” say.

Abstract. Accurate assessment of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions and their redistribution among the atmosphere, ocean, and terrestrial biosphere in a changing climate is critical to bette...
