1/2 Another year, the big paper on the Global Carbon Budget is out, 2023, with complete data to 2022 & projections for 2023 Fossil CO2 emissions up, land use change emissions down, natural CO2 sinks are maintained, CO2 concentrations continue to increase essd.copernicus.org/articles/15/53…

But, we have eddy covariance on board😎

Our scientists are off to #Antarctica to investigate the carbon secrets of the #SouthernOcean❄️It's the world’s largest heat & carbon sink, but many of its biological, chemical & physical processes aren't fully understood. Cue the #AntarcticPICCOLO project:pml.ac.uk/News/PML-scien…

Our very first speaker @Lealange at GEOMAR talks about the micro layer and the BASS cruise. 😊European Geosciences Union SOLAS

Our second speaker @ManuelavanPinxteren at OS1.7 session & SOLAS parts talks about Amino acids, carbohydrates and lipids European Geosciences Union SOLAS

Very interesting talk about the Sea spray aerosol from our third speaker @SnehaAggarwal #egu2024 #SOLAS

Now, the online speaker @luisagalgani important evidence that the plastic may hinder the CO2 uptake #EGU SOLAS

Cool physical oceanography study by #AhmadFehmiDilmahamod from GEOMAR. SOLAS is not only biogeochemistry, also physics SOLAS #EGU24

The role of rain in the air-sea CO2 flux estimates cannot be ignored. Great talk by #LaetitiaParc #EGU24 SOLAS

Novel study by #LucyHendrickson investigates the role of sea spray on carbon cycle. #EGU24 SOLAS

Our last but invited speaker Bernd Jähne talking the possibility of using an annular wind wave tank and very small-scale imaging method to understand the gas exchange mechanisms. #EGU24 SOLAS

My first EGU with great experience and learned a lot.😊

Our new study based on eddy covariance suggests strong CO2 uptake in the Southern Ocean. Much appreciated for all the co-authors, reviewers and colleagues who provided useful discussions. Science Advances science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

In high sediment contamination concentration near oil and gas platforms, we showed a general decline in total species richness while pollution-resilient species dominant. Loss of larger predators and dietary specialists showed a degraded but more connected food web structure.
