Gruber has a new paper in Nature. Southern Ocean sucks up more carbon dioxide than was thought Remote ocean has doubled its intake of the greenhouse gas since 2000, reversing an earlier decline. Gruber notes that increasing CO2 absorption may also be causing the ocean’s water to become more acidic, which could interfere with the formation of the calcium-carbonate-based shells of some marine organisms that live there. And, he adds, climate scientists cannot rely on the Southern Ocean to remain a strong carbon sink: “At the moment it’s very strong, it’s very good, but I don’t think we can automatically assume it will stay that way.” nature.com
