Title
Strategies for the Evaluation and Assessment Of Ocean based Carbon Dioxide Removal
General information
The oceans are the world鈥檚 largest carbon sink and an essential buffer against climate change. Enhancing or accelerating natural carbon sequestration processes in the ocean could be a powerful tool in transitioning to a climate-neutral and more resilient society. However, most research regarding CO2 removal has focused on terrestrial strategies. Ocean-based carbon dioxide removal (OCDR) as described could be equally if not more effective. The EU-funded SEAO2-CDR project intends to fill critical gaps in our understanding of OCDR approaches to enable sustainable, effective, and environmentally and economically viable OCDR. The team will also address responsible and effective governance of OCDR and what is needed for business development and scale-up.
