Collaborative Research: Investigating Biogeochemical Fluxes and Linkages To Climate Change With Multi-Scale Observations In The Drake Passage
Short Title:
Marine Biogeochemical Observations in The Drake Passage
Start Date:
2016-09-01
End Date:
2022-08-31
Description/Abstract
The Southern Ocean plays a key role in modulating the global carbon cycle, but the size and even the sign of the flux of carbon dioxide between the ocean and atmosphere in this region is still uncertain. This is in part due to the lack of measurements in this remote region of the world ocean. This project continues a multi-year time series of shipboard chemical measurements in the Drake Passage to detect changes in the ocean carbon cycle and to improve the understanding of mechanisms driving natural variability and long-term change in the Southern Ocean. More specifically, this project is a continuation of the collection of underway upper ocean measurements of the surface partial pressure of carbon dioxide during crossings of the Drake Passage by the Antarctic Research and Supply Vessel Laurence M. Gould. This project also includes collection and analysis of discrete samples relevant to ocean carbon cycle studies including macronutrient concentrations, total carbon dioxide concentrations, and the carbon isotopic composition of total carbon dioxide. The Drake Passage data are made readily available to the international science community and serve as both validation and constraints of remotely sensed observations and numerical coupled earth systems models.
