To investigate why the global warming trend varies from decade to decade, scientists from the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) will work alongside those from nine other research organisations as part of a major new multidisciplinary research project.
The Partnership for Observation of the Global Oceans (POGO) presented the new observational strategy at a press conference in Tokyo, Japan, on Monday ahead of the annual meeting of the organisation.
Most ocean data sets are far too short for the accurate detection of trends resulting from global climate change, according to research published today in the journal Global Change Biology.
A new method of tracking ocean currents from space has been developed by NASA scientists and verified using data from the National Oceanography Centre (NOC).
The National Oceanography Centre has lent its expertise to the creation of a fictitious story where rising sea levels due to climate change, and the equinox brings a massive flood to one of the highest areas of the country.
A significant step has been made for potential Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) deployment, with the publication of the results from the world’s first experiment into the realistic simulation of the potential environmental impact of a submarine CO2 leakage.
In order to save lives at sea, the National Oceanography Centre (NOC) is joining six research organisations to provide a world-class marine monitoring and forecasting service, which could be used to improve marine rescue operations.
NOC research on the effect of buckets on climatic data was featured in the recent BBC documentary ‘Climate Change by Numbers’, which framed the science of climate change using three numbers.
