Fate of ocean oxygen in a changing climate

Speaker: Laure Resplandy, Princeton University

Location: Warren Weaver Hall 1302

Date: Wednesday, April 16, 2025, 3:30 p.m.

Synopsis:

The ocean is losing oxygen in response to global warming. Yet, observations and climate models have so far shown large departures and uncertainties in the regional patterns of this ocean de-oxygenation, with implications for the future of ecosystems and the production of nitrous oxide, a potent greenhouse gas. This talk will present recent advances that shed light on the fate of ocean oxygenation and reconcile prior controversies.
