Helping the Ocean observing element of @ICOS_RI deliver the data we need to quantify the oceans role in planetary C cycling. Research interests: ocean solubility, biological and shelf seas C pumps, Land Ocean Carbon transfers. Governance and funding of the Ocean C Observing System

The respiration of exported carbon in midwater is a major way that the biological pump stores carbon in the ocean

Lewis - you seem well acquainted with Norway. Might be worth do doing a bit on Bankid and how useful it is for everything here.

Some great bands there

OceanICU is hosting a webinar at the #COP29 Virtual Ocean Pavilion to provide insights into how ocean carbon should be considered in policy & how it connects to the UNFCCC & BBNJ

Within @icos-ri.eu we are thinking through what our strategy in this key area should be - fluxes to the atmosphere and burial are key terms we can manage if we have good long term datasets to detect change. RIs are ideally configured to produce and steward this information for commjnity usage
The Land Ocean Aquatic Continuum (LOAC) is a really important part of the Earth System for carbon cycling.

Ultimately the Biological Pump depends on the individual interactions of myriad species with the local environment & with each other. Here Sari Giering & others describe the detailed dynamics that drive flux as a large Southern Ocean Bloom declines.

Species‐specific diatom dynamics shape their vertical distribution and export during bloom decline
The Southern Ocean is a critical region for global biogeochemical cycles, particularly for carbon dioxide uptake and organic carbon export, partly driven by extensive phytoplankton blooms. In natural...

We all know the biological pump is interesting, beautiful & valuable, but how important is it in the Earth System? & what role (if any) does it play in ocean Canth uptake? These are just 2 of the Qs explored in this new @oceanicu.bsky.social‬ paper 🌊

Interested in the Southern Ocean C Sink and how to monitor it using autonomous platforms?

🌊The EuroGO-SHIP project has reached a critical point. All the work gathering user views, requirements and perspectives comes together to make a statement of requirements which we need to figure out how to integrate into the RI landscape. We're starting with a 2 day workshop at the top of Ulriken.

Introducing our new project - TRICUSO - Three Research Infrastructures Carbon Uptake Southern Ocean. We aim to integrate effort from surface CO2 observations within ICOS, deep observations from GOSHIP and Argo as a contribution to the WMO Global Greenhouse Gas Watch

Recently I took some time out to discuss the COP with Toste Tanhua from @geomarkiel.bsky.social. Its a big important event but what does it actually do, and how does it work? I'm not sure if we answered those queries but we had fun trying - what do you think?
