The IAEA Environment Laboratories apply nuclear and isotopic techniques to better understand the carbon cycle, to evaluate the ocean’s ... including in the Arctic Ocean, a region which is particularly ...

In addition to contributing to global climate change, this huge influx of carbon and nitrogen could have major impacts on ...

carbon emissions that go into the atmosphere will end up in the ocean. The Cai lab will analyze how much anthropogenic carbon the western Arctic Ocean has absorbed based on carbon isotopes in the ...

A groundbreaking study reveals that the Transpolar Drift, a major Arctic current, is far more dynamic than once thought. As ...

We use climate models and oceanographic observations to study the biogeochemistry of the ocean, including its carbon cycle. Many of our studies look at the connection between the ocean carbon cycle ...

These organisms form calcium carbonate shells and are particularly sensitive to ocean acidification and ... biogeography and their role in the carbon cycle, with a particular focus on calcifying ...

Some of the key processes studied are the cycling of: inorganic and organic carbon ... along the Arctic Transpolar Drift, driven by shifting river inputs and ice–ocean exchange, underscoring ...

Retreating glaciers created 2,500km of “new” coastline and 35 “new” islands in the Arctic between 2000 and 2020 ... that play a hitherto unquantified role in the global carbon cycle”. Glaciers are ...

Almost a month later, across the Pacific Ocean ... carbon sinks able to absorb all the carbon being emitted? The planet’s oceans, forests, and soil are well-known carbon sinks. The Arctic ...

Arctic sea ice has recorded its smallest winter peak extent since satellite records began 47 years ago, new data reveals. Provisional data from the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (NSIDC) shows ...

These carbonates do not exchange with the atmosphere and are mainly exported to the coastal ocean. Organic carbon is also exported to the ocean, or stored in flood plains. (C) In the coastal ocean ...
