New method helps understand the global organic carbon cycle Researchers from the USA, the UK and Bremen have used a new method to calculate the rate at which organic carbon was sequestered in marine sediments during the Earth's Neogene period. Short-lived Ice Streams Radar scans of the Greenland ice sheet reveal the shutdown and reconfiguration of ice streams in the span of a few thousand years Keeping pace with climate change? GEOMAR study shows adaptability of copepods as long as not too many stressors come together at the same time. New Method Makes It Possible to Measure Arctic Sea-ice Thickness, Even in Summer An international team of researchers including experts from the AWI has now developed a method that uses satellite data to estimate the Arctic ice thickness and volume year-round Marine Conservation in the Arctic High Time to Prepare for the Melting Rostock marine biologists study the effects of climate change in the Arctic Marine and terrestrial organisms are being studied in the context of climate change. Vital Ventilation Stony corals use a refined built-in ventilation system to protect themselves from environmental stressors Do oceans absorb more CO2 than expected? New theory on the movement of phytoplankton could imply that oceans absorb more CO2 by 2100 instead of less Hot on the trail of the causes of rapid ice sheet instabilities in climate history New study: Heat accumulation in the deeper subpolar North Atlantic triggers Heinrich events. Sustainable collaboration: Using the AWI’s polar aircraft in the Harz Researchers use test flights for upcoming Arctic campaign to quantify damage to forests Study Shows Recovery of the Fin Whale in the Antarctic for the First Time For the first time since the ban on whaling, large groups of southern fin whales documented in the Antarctic Threatened Ecosystem in Focus: 15th World Coral Reef Conference Starting More than 1,000 scientists from over 80 countries will discuss the world’s most important event for coral reefs starting this weekend in Bremen.
