In a new study, researchers from the ZMT found that sea level may not be the only factor playing a role in the fate of threatened islands. Coasts as „climate protectors” A new study involving three German research centers shows: coastal wetlands and estuaries are collectively a net greenhouse gas sink New coral database for climate data of the past 2,000 years Previously existing data sets from coral climate archives were compiled and are now available in the new PAGES (Past Global Changes) CoralHydro2k database. Our future with the sea In the Ocean Future Lab, artistic visualisations of what life and the sea would look like in the future have been created. They all have one thing in common: the desire for intact marine environments.
