The OC4C project aims to initiate preliminary activities towards the long-term generation of ocean carbon Climate Data Records (CDRs) which will provide and use multiple Essential Climate Variables (ECVs).

🌊The ocean carbon sink is ailing. In 2023’s record marine heatwave, the ocean absorbed ~1 Gt less CO₂ – ≈ half the EU’s annual emissions.

Somewhere in Atlantic - and sea is like glass for last few days. We are out here measuring carbon flux & how ocean removes all of that carbon. Microbes don’t work for us; so unless we understand the processes - we don’t know where tipping points are. Thankful to @NSF for supporting basic science.

Great to see some of the #OC4C team Dr. Gemma Kulk and Dr. Dan Ford presenting in the Marine and Coastal Carbon session #LPS25 chaired by our scientific lead Prof. Jamie Shutler.

Q. Are there carbon targets for the ocean like we have for the atmosphere?
A. We don't think so!
