Abstract Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) is a marine carbon dioxide (CO2) removal strategy that relies on lowering the ocean's pCO2 via the addition of alkaline materials to facilitate enhanced CO2 uptake with the potential for durable, long‐term, storage.

ABSTRACT Increasing atmospheric CO2 emissions are altering the carbonate chemistry of seawater in a process known as ocean acidification (OA). This is a growing issue for marine industries and communities. During the 2023 New Zealand Ocean Acidification Community (NZOAC) Conference, the community undertook a horizon scanning exercise to determine ...

Illuminating deep-sea considerations and experimental approaches for mCDR proposals [PDF]
As society recognizes the urgency of reducing atmospheric CO2 levels, industries and nations are increasingly considering marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) in their climate mitigation portfolios.

ABSTRACT The marine system plays a critical role in the global climate cycle, as a major control of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2). Marine primary production (photosynthesis) and remineralisation of organic carbon (respiration, degradation) determine the amount of CO2 sequestered in marine sediments and deep‐water environments on century to ...

The need to explore the potential of marine CDR with a one-earth strategy: A guide for policy-makers [PDF]
Rapid, deep and sustained reductions in carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions are essential to achieve the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement of keeping the long-term global average surface temperature increase well below 2°C above pre-industrial levels and ...

How well do global ocean approaches constrain local fCO2?
The ocean absorbs 29% of humanity’s annual anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO $_2$ ) emissions, and the future of climate change is strongly dependent on how this sink evolves.

Effect of Model Resolution on Air‐Sea CO2 Equilibration Timescales
Abstract Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) will likely play a role in efforts to keep global warming below 2°C. mCDR methods create a deficit in dissolved seawater CO2 relative to the unperturbed counterfactual. This seawater CO2 deficit induces either an uptake of atmospheric CO2 or reduced CO2 outgassing into the atmosphere. The immediate climatic

Harnessing nature's buffer: Assessing the role of bivalve shells in coastal alkalinity regeneration
Abstract Bivalve shells, a natural alkaline material, play a crucial role in coastal carbon cycles by influencing total alkalinity (TA) and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This study investigated oyster shell dissolution in Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, under varying pCO2 conditions, revealing TA regeneration rates of 4–56 μmol L−1 d−1, which could

The effect of carbonate mineral additions on biogeochemical conditions in surface sediments and benthic–pelagic exchange fluxes [PDF]
Coastal sediments are hotspots of biogeochemical processes that are impacting subsurface and overlying water conditions. Fluid composition in sediments is altered through the mineralization of organic matter which, under oxic conditions, further lowers ...

Abstract Several initiatives to conserve, restore or better manage fisheries, fishes, whales, and other marine animals have been proposed as natural climate solutions to sequester carbon from the atmosphere or avoid new emissions. We reviewed the knowledge and uncertainties surrounding carbon fluxes and storage mediated by these organisms to evaluate ...
