Joint IMBER/SOLAS Carbon Research Working Group

 |
What is the "Carbon Research" Working Group?
An Ocean Carbon working group (formed jointly with SOLAS) is working toward seamless implementation of ocean carbon research in SOLAS and IMBER. Two major scientific emphases have been identified: (i) carbon inventories, fluxes and transports, and (ii) sensitivities of carbon-relevant processes to changes occurring in the ocean. After development of the implementation plan the group works to encourage the development of requisite research activities at national and international levels.
