New #oceanacidification climatology out by Jiang et al., offering better regional detail and GREAT explanation of how #temperature affects pH. Implications for future ocean CO2 uptake, too: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-019-55039-4 #OceanClimate #ClimateChange

In situ, accurate measurements in SOCAT inform on #ocean #CO2 uptake. @SOCAT_CO2 has reaffirmed its Voluntary Commitment to Annual, public releases of the Surface Ocean CO2 Atlas (#OceanAction20464, https://shar.es/a37Bvd) for #SDG14.

Taro Takahashi, a seagoing scientist who made key discoveries about CO2 & Earth’s climate during a career of more than 60 years, died Dec 3 at age 89. Our deepest condolences to his family as we remember the life & work of our longtime colleague & friend: http://ldeo.columbia.edu/news-events/taro-takahashi-who-uncovered-key-links-between-oceans-and-climate

A serious issue in need of attention. We need a new funding model for key ocean observations and their synthesis for climate science. @SOCAT_CO2 https://twitter.com/GOOSocean/status/1201816078466387968

.@TosteTanhua #GOOSocean: about 70% of sustained ocean observations are funded by short-term research budgets. To improve our capacity for sustainable development solutions, we need more sustained observations, and partnerships between ministries in countries #OceanObs #COP25

@MarineInst @OSUCEOAS @SeaBirdScience @MercatorOcean @RutgersU This should go beyond simply submitting an instrument manual to the OBPS. Such a manual tells you how to use the instrument, it doesn't encapsulate years of experience in using the particular instrument in various situations and on different platforms.

Among the many fun aspects of being scientist, looking forward to installing a pCO2 system on this one, the Statsraad Lehmkuhl.
