Winners and losers under hydroxide-based ocean alkalinity enhancement in a Tasmanian plankton community. [PDF]
Abstract Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) is an emerging carbon dioxide CO2 removal approach for climate change mitigation and can be implemented with various alkaline materials that convert dissolved CO2 into (bi)carbonates, enabling additional atmospheric CO2 removal. A key knowledge gap is how alkaline materials affect marine life.

Abstract. A natural plankton community from oligotrophic subtropical waters of the Atlantic near Gran Canaria, Spain, was subjected to varying degrees of ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) to assess the potential physiological effects, in the context of the application of ocean carbon dioxide removal (CDR) techniques.

Simulated Impact of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement on Atmospheric CO2 Removal in the Bering Sea
Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) has the potential to mitigate ocean acidification (OA) and induce atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) removal (CDR). We evaluate the CDR and OA mitigation impacts of a sustained point‐source OAE of 1.67 × 1010 mol total ...

Resilience of the gelatinous zooplankton species Oikopleura dioica to ocean alkalinity enhancement. [PDF]
Ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) through mineral dissolution is a promising marine carbon dioxide removal strategy because it increases the buffering capacity of seawater and thereby enhances passive storage of atmospheric CO2.
