"One of the planetโ€™s most vital #CarbonSinks i.e. SOUTHERN OCEAN (SO) (absorbs ~40% of C) is revealing its secrets as tiny organisms in the SO play an outsized role in moderating Earthโ€™s #climate."

Details from the recent research are discussed in a๐Ÿงตโฌ‡๏ธ

"Based on 107 independent observations of the seasonal cycle from 63 #biogeochemical profiling floats, new study conducted by scientists from #NOAA & University of Hawai'i provide the basin-scale estimate of distinct biogenic #CarbonPool production at Southern Ocean."
2/8 Image
Researchers find "significant meridional variability with enhanced #ParticulateOrganicCarbon production in the subantarctic & polar Antarctic sectors & enhanced #DissolvedOrganicCarbon production in the subtropical & sea-ice-dominated sectors."

๐ŸšจNEW STUDY๐Ÿšจ
"Six models are used in a recent study to analyze the climatic, environmental & socio-economic consequences of #overshooting a C budget consistent with the 1.5ยฐC temp target along the cause-effect chain from emissions & #CarbonRemovals to climate risks & impact."
๐Ÿงต Image
"Global climatic indicators such as CO2-concentration and mean temperature closely follow the #CarbonBudget #overshoot with mid-century peaks of 50 ppmv and 0.35ยฐC, respectively."
2/10
Findings of this study highlight that "investigating #overshoot scenarios requires temporally and spatially differentiated analysis of climate, environmental and socioeconomic systems."

๐ŸšจNEW STUDY๐Ÿšจ

๐ŸŒฒ"#Sequestering C in forest ecosystems is important for mitigating #ClimateChange."

โœ๏ธ"Policy concern: whether forests should be left unharvested to reduce CO2 #emissions & store C, or harvested to take advantage of potential #CarbonStorage & #removal."

๐Ÿงต1/8 ImageImage
So, new study addressed this issue "by examining C rotation ages that consider commercial timber and C values. A discrete-time optimal rotation age model is developed that uses data on C #fluxes stored in living & dead biomass as opposed to C as a function of timber growth."
2/8 Image
"Carbon is allocated to several ecosystem and post-harvest product pools that decay over time at different rates. In addition, the timing of #CarbonFluxes is taken into account by weighting future carbon fluxes as less important than current ones."

๐ŸšจNEW STUDY๐Ÿšจ

๐ŸŒŠRecent study "presents the mass balances linked with #CarbonDioxideRemoval using seawater as both the source of reactants & as the reaction medium via electrolysis following the โ€œEquaticโ€ (formerly known as โ€œSeaChangeโ€) process."

๐ŸŒŠDetails in a ๐Ÿงต below โฌ‡๏ธ
1/12 Image
"The #Equatic process, broadly detailed in (pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10.10โ€ฆ), involves the application of an electric overpotential that splits H2O to form H+ & OHโ€“ ions, producing #acidity & #alkalinity, i.e., in addition to gaseous coproducts at the anode & cathode, respectively."
2/12 Image
"The #alkalinity that results, i.e., via the steady electrolytic pH pump results in the rapid precipitation of CaCO3, hydrated magnesium #carbonates (e.g., nesquehonite & hydromagnesite, etc.) or Mg(OH)2 depending on the carbonate ion-activity in solution."

๐ŸšจNEW STUDY๐Ÿšจ

"#Afforestation & #reforestation are worthwhile solutions for C sequestration, but lack of hierarchical spatial-temporal maps for national scale #CarbonSequestrationRate hinders scientific implementation."

In this regard, a new study is published, details โฌ‡๏ธ
1/8๐Ÿงต Image
๐ŸŒฒResearchers assessed "the spatial-temporal #CarbonSequestrationRate (CSR) per area for #Afforestation & #Reforestation at the provincial, prefectural, and county levels in China using a forest carbon sequestration model under three climate scenarios."
2/8
๐ŸŒณ๐ŸŒฑResults showed that "the #CSR of vegetation (CSRVeg), soil (CSRSoil), and the ecosystem (CSREco) significantly varied across space and time. In China, the CSRVeg, CSRSoil, and CSREco were primarily regulated by the spatial variations in temperature and precipitation."
