Ocean Carbon Uptake working groups

Joint Working Groups with US Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) Program

  • Oceanic carbon uptake in the CMIP5 models (Joint U.S. CLIVAR/OCB, Co-Chairs: Annalisa Bracco, Curtis Deutsch, Taka Ito) (2012-2015)
  • Heat and carbon uptake by the Southern Ocean (Joint U.S. CLIVAR/OCB, Co-Chairs: Joellen Russell, Igor Kamenkovich) (2012-2015)
