Ocean Carbon & Biogeochemistry

C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program

Program Description We are pleased to invite applications for the new C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program. The C-CoMP Faculty Fellow Program supports researchers whose lines of inquiry complement C-CoMP’s scientific and education research agendas. We strongly value diversity and encourage people from minoritized and marginalized groups to apply. The Faculty Fellowship will provide one month of […]

BioGeoSCAPES 2023 Workshop – Apply by June 5

The NSF-funded Accelnet Development of an International Network for the Study of Ocean Metabolism and Nutrient Cycles on a Changing Planet (BioGeoSCAPES) will convene an international BioGeoSCAPES science planning workshop on 6-9 November 2023 at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (with hybrid option). The objectives of this workshop are to: Facilitate community building and collaboration across nations and disciplines […]

Are you interested in a primer on ocean biogeochemical modeling with hands-on examples?

Look no further. This primer article explains what an ocean biogeochemical model is, how such a model is designed and applied, and includes easily accessible code examples. Refresh your memory on commonly used metrics for model evaluation through model-data comparison. Get introduced to the underlying rationale, mechanics, applications, and pitfalls of data assimilation for parameter […]

Adaptive emission pathways to stabilize global temperatures

Around the world, countries have agreed in the Paris Agreement to limit global warming well below 2°C and to pursue efforts to reduce global warming to 1.5°C. However, large uncertainties remain about which emission pathways will allow us to reach this goal. A recent paper presents a new adaptive approach to create emission pathways and […]

Hydrostatic pressure substantially reduces deep-sea microbial activity

Deep sea microbial communities are experiencing increasing hydrostatic pressure with depth. It is known that some deep sea microbes require high hydrostatic pressure for growth, but most measurements of deep-sea microbial activity have been performed under atmospheric pressure conditions. In a recent paper published in Nature Geoscience, the authors used a new device coined ‘In […]

New BioGeoSCAPES Fellows Program NSF Accelnet-funded

We are excited to launch a BioGeoSCAPES Fellows program funded by the NSF AccelNet award Development of an International Network for the Study of Ocean Metabolism and Nutrient Cycles on a Changing Planet (BioGeoSCAPES). This new program will bring together an international, interdisciplinary cohort of early career (postdocs and senior graduate students) researchers working in the areas […]

GO-BGC/BGC-Argo Science Workshop

A GO-BGC/BGC-Argo Float Data Workshop will be held August 21-23, 2023 at UMass Boston, USA. The format of the workshop will be a hands-on exercise with open practices, inclusive participation, and thoughtful problem exploration. Attendees will generate research ideas utilizing Biogeochemical Argo float data and start working on projects as teams. This will be an […]

OCB2023 – Zoom registration is open

There are two ways to attend OCB2023 – you can stream any session or all of them online from your home or office! Or you can attend in person. If you cannot attend the entire workshop in person, we recommend you stream instead to leave spots for those who will fully participate. We are taking […]
