The impact of ocean alkalinity enhancement on marine biota offers hope for carbon dioxide removal
by Thamarasee Jeewandara on Phys.org, June 27, 2023
“Marine biologists are increasingly seeking methods to mitigate anthropogenic climate interference by implementing strategies for ocean carbon dioxide removal (CDR). Ocean alkalinity enhancement parameter is an abiotic approach aimed at carbon dioxide removal. Attempts to increase the carbon dioxide uptake capacity of the ocean can be established by dispersing pulverized mineral or dissolved alkali into the ocean surface. Nevertheless, the impact of this action remains largely unexplored.”
