Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Oceans help cool the plant by absorbing atmospheric carbon dioxide. Estimating the size of the oceanic carbon sink depends on calculating upward and downward flows of carbon dioxide at the sea surface and, in turn, this flow is governed largely by turbulence – the relative movement and mixing of air and water at the sea surface. According to new research, three Gigatonnes of carbon a year are being drawn down into the ocean, which is about a third of the emissions caused by human activity.
