This project investigates the role of the sea-surface microlayer in the ocean's absorption of carbon dioxide. It aims to measure gas exchange and map the chemical and biological properties of this layer to improve understanding of oceanic carbon uptake and its implications for climate change.
The Earth’s oceans absorb about 11 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO2) each year, about 25% of all anthropogenic CO2.
The oceans are huge reservoirs of CO2, and a better understanding on how the oceans absorb CO2 is critical for predicting climate change.
The sea-surface microlayer (SML), the aqueous boundary layer between the ocean and atmosphere, plays an important role in the exchange of gases between the ocean and atmosphere.
The effects of the SML on air-sea gas exchange have been widely…
