Ocean Topic: Biological Carbon Pump - Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution
20 Dec 2024 at 12:27am
The ocean?s so-called biological carbon pump removes carbon from the atmosphere and stores it deep in the ocean on timescales that are important to the lifespan of humans. The solubility carbon pump, which stores much larger amounts of carbon, operates on timescales in the thousands of years and is a much slower mixing process.
