Deep-sea carbon storage linked to 4.5 million years of cooling
Original: Carbon storage in the deep sea linked to Earth’s cooling over 4.5 million years
New research connects carbon stored in the deep ocean to the long-term cooling of Earth's climate over the past 4.5 million years. The findings suggest changes in deep-sea carbon storage played a role in driving the global temperature decline that preceded the ice ages, offering insight into how oceans regulate climate over millions of years.
Why now: Fresh research linking ocean carbon storage to long-term climate change is drawing attention amid ongoing concern about carbon cycles and global warming.
