The concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is set to reach 425.7 parts per million in 2025.

Emerging climate impacts on the land and ocean carbon sinks contributed 8% to the rise in atmospheric CO2 concentration since 1960.

The land and ocean CO₂ sink are 25% and 7% smaller, respectively, than they would have been without the effects of climate change and variability, on average for the 2015-2024 period.

Combined, this is equivalent to the total sink (land and ocean) being nearly 20% smaller than otherwise.

The land & ocean CO2 sinks were re-evaluated based on stronger evidence & new understanding
• The ocean CO2 sink was re-evaluated upwards, taking up 29% of the total emissions.
• The land CO2 sink was re-evaluated downwards, taking up 21% of the total emissions.

Total anthropogenic CO2 emissions – the sum of fossil & land-use change emissions – have grown more slowly in the past decade1 (0.3% per year on average), compared to the previous decade (1.9% per year).

The growth in fossil emissions is offset by the decrease in land-use change emissions.

Good news: 35 countries have decreased their fossil CO2 emissions significantly (p<0.05) while growing their economies in the decade 2015-20244, twice as many as during the previous decade (2005-2014; 18 countries.

These 35 countries account for 27% of global fossil CO2 emissions.

We are - to our knowledge for the first time - not only assessing the potential efficiency of OAE using a global model, but also potential effects on phytoplankton and how phytoplankton can affect OAE efficiency.
Exiting results - enjoy reading 😊

--> This is also the first publication using the emission-driven AWI-ESM building on a few years of development in the @helmholtz.de Young Investigator Group #MarESys @awi.de

Shout out to @miriamseif.bsky.social and Christopher Danek for the heavy lifting in this work.
