All the water we cannot see
Only a fraction of the ocean lies at the surface. How can we find out what happens in water that lies underwater?

Another record year for fossil fuel emissions
Global CO₂ emissions from fossil fuels are projected to be 1.1 % higher in 2025. The ocean CO₂ uptake was re-evaluated based on stronger evidence and new understanding.
