![]() USVs have proved to be particularly effective at filling observational gaps in rough conditions, such as those of the Southern Ocean, and providing new insights into the role storms play in air-sea carbon exchange. They give a brief overview of the evolution of data collection practices-from the placement of CO 2 instruments on cargo ships and research vessels starting in the 1960s, to sensors being deployed on buoys in the 1990s, to today’s innovative use of uncrewed surface vehicles (USVs). In this video, Adrienne Sutton of PMEL’s Ocean Carbon Program, and Sophie Chu, formerly of the NOAA Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean, and Ecosystem Studies (CICOES) at the University of Washington, highlight the exchange of carbon between the ocean and atmosphere and the ocean’s role in absorbing human carbon emissions, as well as how the ocean is impacted, and effects on marine ecosystems, climate and weather. However, the name Earth is a Germanic word, which simply means the. All of the planets, except for Earth, were named after Greek and Roman gods and goddesses. The name Earth is at least 1,000 years old. The PMEL at Work series highlights ongoing research activities and projects supporting NOAA’s mission to understand changes in the global ocean and its impact on climate, weather and ecosystems. Just slightly larger than nearby Venus, Earth is the biggest of the four planets closest to the Sun, all of which are made of rock and metal. ![]() PMEL has released “The Ocean: Earth’s CO 2 Sponge,” the latest video in the PMEL at Work short video series. ![]() A screenshot from the newly released video: “The Ocean: Earth’s CO 2 Sponge” Credit: NOAA ![]()
