🌊 paper alert !

Global observations suggest that while eddies export carbon to depth, their role in the biological carbon pump is likely modest (<5%)

🌊 AST-27 kicks off today in Cape Town!

30 nations, one goal: ocean observation.

Day 1: achievements, priorities, challenges on the table. Four more days of science & decisions ahead. An important week for the future of Argo starts now!

#Argofloat #OneArgo

🌊 Over the past decade, BGC-Argo has bridged communities that long evolved separately, from ocean colour and bio-optics to hydrography and biogeochemistry.

With 500+ active floats, the next step is scaling up (target: 1000).

🌍 A pivotal moment for the future of the global ocean observing system

📢 Paper Alert

How predictable is phytoplankton in the Southern Ocean?

25 yrs of observations reveal that only ~43% follows clear seasonal cycles, while the rest remains highly variable.

🌊 What if “stable” ocean processes are actually always changing?

New BGC-Argo data show oxygen-deficient zones are dynamic, with nitrite dropping and nitrogen cycling shifting.

A New Twist on Robotic Float Data Reveals Critical Ocean Chemistry - Eos A novel application of a statistical method to existing data from the global network of BGC-Argo floats unveiled chemical measurements critical to tracking nitrogen cycling in oxygen minimum zones.

To predict how oxygen-depleted areas of the ocean will evolve, scientists must observe the invisible chemistry that drives them, writes Mariana Bif @miamirosenstiel.bsky.social (and formerly at @mbarinews.bsky.social).

Two men hold a long yellow cylinder and are in the act of deploying it over the side of a boat. Both are wearing red jackets and blue hard hats. the ocean is seen in the background and to the right of the frame.
