VERTEXSO investigates how vertical transport processes in the Southern Ocean affect carbon dioxide and heat exchange, aiming to improve climate models and monitoring methods. The project combines simulations and observational data to enhance understanding of the ocean's role in mitigating climate change.
Mitigating global climatic changes due to human influences is of paramount importance in the coming decades.
Historically, the global ocean has played a critical role in this process by taking up the majority of the excess heat and about 30% of the anthropogenic carbon-dioxide (CO2) emissions from the atmosphere.
The largest share of this uptake process occurred through the subduction of waters in the Southern Ocean that sequester heat and carbon in deeper layers of the ocean.
Yet, global climat…
