Sub-seabed CO2 Storage: Impact on Marine Ecosystems (ECO2) (ECO2)

Start date: May 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2015,

The ECO2 project sets out to assess the risks associated with the storage of CO2 below the seabed. Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) is regarded as a key technology for the reduction of CO2 emissions from power plants and other sources at the European and international level. The EU will hence support a selected portfolio of demonstration projects to promote, at industrial scale, the implementation ...

How does weathering link to atmospheric carbon dioxide – evidence from past extreme climate events (LINKWEATHERINGCO2)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2013,

"How does the Earth’s climate recover from events of rapid and extreme global warming or cooling? Why have the huge fluctuations in atmospheric CO2 in the geological past not caused runaway climate effects, making the Earth become Venus- or Mars-like? Silicate weathering of the continents is the main CO2 removal process, and therefore a dominant long-term climate control mechanism. However the deb ...

Deposition of Atmospheric Particles on the Ocean : a Process study (DAPOP)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2010,

"The surface ocean nutrient cycle controls the efficiency of the “biological carbon pump” through which CO2 is transported as organic carbon to the deep sea. The DAPOP project aims to study the chemical, biological and physical processes that controls the release of nutrients (iron and phosphorus) by atmospheric particle deposition to the surface ocean and, thus, to quantify the impact of atmosphe ...
