Connecting the dots: bringing diverse data sets together to understand the ocean carbon cycle
By Sophie Clayton, National Oceanography Centre Predicting how the carbon cycle will respond to a warming climate is still an open question, with CMIP6 climate projections giving a wide range of projections for how ocean biology will interact with higher temperatures and higher atmospheric carbon dioxide. To improve these projections, …
