The ocean is one of the principal regulators of global climate, but much of what it does occurs out of sight, deep beneath the surface.Join us to learn about the biological carbon pump—the living ocean’s role in moving carbon out of the atmosphere and into the depths—and the ways humans can help or hinder this natural, vital part of Earth’s carbon cycle.
This will be a hybrid seminar held in Redfield Auditorium. If you wish to join virtually, you can register here: https://events.whoi.edu/climatehero
