Summary

Abstract: NOAA's Ocean Atmosphere Carbon Dioxide Exchange Study (OACES)
seeks to enhance our understanding of the role of the ocean in
sequestering the increasing burden of anthropogenically-derived
carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. To do this, OACES scientists
quantitatively assess the sources, sinks and pathways of carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere and the oceans. Research ...
