The biological carbon pump is fueled by tiny plant-like organisms floating on the ocean surface called phytoplankton, which consume carbon dioxide in the process of photosynthesis.

Key Points: 
  • The biological carbon pump is fueled by tiny plant-like organisms floating on the ocean surface called phytoplankton, which consume carbon dioxide in the process of photosynthesis.
  • The ocean takes up an estimated five to 12 gigatons of carbon dioxide per year through a process known as the biological carbon pump.
  • More accurate estimates of the ocean's capacity to remove carbon from the atmosphere will lead to more accurate climate models which could improve carbon emissions policies.
  • The global economic benefit of studying the ocean's biological pump is $500 billion, if the science leads to policy decisions that mitigate the effects of climate change.

New research from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) reveals the distinct impact that ocean acidification is having on coral growth on some of the world's iconic reefs.

Key Points: 
  • New research from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) reveals the distinct impact that ocean acidification is having on coral growth on some of the world's iconic reefs.
  • The compounding effects of temperature, local stressors, and now ocean acidification will be devastating for many reefs."
  • "This method really opens a new way to determine the impact of ocean acidification on reefs around the world," said Guo.
  • Pollution and land runoffcan exacerbate the effects of ocean acidification, causing corals in local reefs to weaken more quickly than those located farther away from human settlements.
