Große Wissenslücken über die Kohlenstoffsenke im Ozean Der Ozean absorbiert derzeit etwa ein Viertel des vom Menschen produzierten CO2 und bremst so die globale Erwärmung. Der Klimawandel verändert diese wichtige Fähigkeit jedoch. Wie genau sich die Kohlenstoffsenke im Ozean in den kommenden Jahrzehnten entwickeln wird, kann bisher jedoch nicht eindeutig gesagt werden. Dafür fehlen wichtige wissenschaftliche Daten aus einigen Meeren der Erde. Zu diesem Schluss kommt die Zwischenstaatliche Ozeanographische Kommission der UNESCO in ihrem aktuellen Bericht. Prof. Judith Hauck vom Alfred-Wegener-Institut hat an dem Bericht mitgearbeitet.

We can essentially predict 🌊ocean CO2 uptake and atm CO2 reduction based on amount of alkalinity added (R2 > 0.98). Of course, some processes are missing in all models, and this will be very different for the first 1-2 decades of the simulation as we illustrate with the large ensemble spread.

Do you think there is a lot of spread between 🌊 models when simulating alkalinity enhancement?

After decade long simulations, there is astonishingly little spread between models, irrespective of their choice of scenario and regional deployment mask.

- The scenario sensitivity has previously been underestimated in ocean-only or concentration-driven simulations. The reduction in atmospheric CO2 due to OAE is weaker from the 2060s onwards in SSP1-2.6, that is after peak atmospheric CO2 (compared to a high-emission scenario).

ocean alkalinity enhancement efficiencies. purple: low-emission scenario, blue: high-emission scenario

- The feedbacks in the ESM make that efficiencies are smaller than in ocean-only or concentration-driven simulations and lead to high uncertainties in the first one or two decades. That will be a real challenge for monitoring.

- OAE in subduction regions is not significantly less efficient than evenly spread OAE over the globe. How much carbon exactly is transferred to the deep ocean varies strongly between ensemble members that experience somewhat different climate states

"However, after equilibration with the atmosphere, the addition of 3 Pg olivine yr−1 is not compensating the effect of ocean acidification"

Everyone, take a note of this, please.

Ocean alkalinity enhancement does hardly counter ocean acidification.

Hydrogen emissions are ‘supercharging’ the warming impact of methane - Carbon Brief The warming impact of hydrogen has been “overlooked” in projections of climate change, authors of the latest “global hydrogen budget” say.

The Global Carbon Project has just published the most comprehensive Global Hydrogen Budget to date.

H2, although not a GHG, has an indirect Global Warming Potential 37 times more potent than CO2.
