CO₂ removal and storage: Which options are feasible and desirable? A new framework helps to evaluate the feasibility of ocean-based CO2 removal processes and assesses their impact on humans and nature New study on natural oil seeps in the deep sea What is the role of dissolved organic matter in the deep sea? In a study relating to this question, researchers have investigated the composition of dissolved organic matter in detail. Lowest levels on record for Arctic winter sea ice The maximum extent of Arctic winter sea ice is well below the long-term average, with mean March levels at a record low Storing CO₂ Beneath the German North Sea? GEOSTOR Research Consortium Publishes Interim Report Scientists provide insights into the geological, technical, ecological, and legal dimensions of offshore CO₂ storage, contributing to the CCS debate in Germany Why not every saltwater inflow benefits the Baltic Sea equally New study by Kiel University: Major saltwater inflows differ in their nature and thus affect respective oxygen supply to the Baltic Sea New Podcast “Life in the Deep Biosphere” Explores Secrets of the Ocean Floor What happens under extreme conditions on the ocean floor? What role does the ocean floor play in the global carbon cycle? The dilemma of climate policy Governments are guided by ethical principles when it comes to climate protection, while cost-benefit considerations take priority for their citizens Global Comparative Study on Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement Begins in Kiel GEOMAR Investigates the Response of Plankton from the Baltic Sea The Unforseen Effects of Melting Glaciers on Arctic Coastal Ecosystems Researchers found that glacial melt changes the microbiome of habitat-forming brown algae in Arctic fjords Weaker ocean circulation could cost trillions A major motor for the global climate is beginning to falter: a massive system of ocean currents called the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) Longest-runout undersea sediment flows analysed in unprecedented detail Scientists unravel the dynamics of powerful deep-sea turbidity currents Algae may speed up Greenland ice melt The tiny ice inhabitants darken the glacier surface and can thus accelerate its melting Choosing climate protection means protecting the oceans DAM statement on the 2025 federal election Hot springs in the Arctic Study on the newly discovered northernmost hydrothermal field on Earth Previous 1 2 3 4 5 … 14 Next Share this page Newsletter Always up to date with the DAM newsletter.
