Microfibers in oceanic surface waters: A global characterization
Science Advances, 2020 Contrary to global production, most fibers floating in the ocean are not synthetic but natural fibers of animal or plant origin. Microfibers are ubiquitous contaminants of emerging concern.

Potassium isotopic heterogeneity in subducting oceanic plates
Science Advances, 2020 High-precision K isotopic measurements identify crustal inputs to the mantle and controls on oceanic K cycle. Oceanic crust and sediments are the primary K sinks for seawater, and they deliver considerable amounts of K to the mantle via subduction ...

Top-down estimate of a large source of atmospheric carbon monoxide associated with fuel combustion in Asia [PDF]
, 2002 We simulate the oceanic and atmospheric distribution of methyl iodide (CH3I) with a global 3-D model driven by assimilated meteorological observations from the Goddard Earth Observing System of the NASA Data Assimilation Office and coupled to an oceanic ...

The oceanic sink for anthropogenic CO2 from 1994 to 2007
Science, 2019 The state of ocean CO2 uptake The ocean is an important sink for anthropogenic CO2 and has absorbed roughly 30% of our emissions between the beginning of the industrial revolution and the mid-1990s. This effect is an important moderator of climate change,

Primary production of the biosphere: integrating terrestrial and oceanic components
Science, 1998 Integrating conceptually similar models of the growth of marine and terrestrial primary producers yielded an estimated global net primary production (NPP) of 104.9 petagrams of carbon per year, with roughly equal contributions from land and oceans ...
