Rainfall Significantly Boosts Ocean Carbon Dioxide Absorption Rates, Claims New Study

Posted on by

A new study led by David Ho highlights that rainfall significantly increases the ocean’s carbon dioxide absorption by 5% to 7%, adding up to 140 to 190 million metric tons of CO2 annually. This research identifies mechanisms like turbulence, dilution, and wet deposition as key contributors to enhanced carbon uptake. The findings are crucial for improving climate model…
