Machine learning sharpens two decades of East China Sea carbon flux insight
Two decades of satellite data now reveal a sharper truth about the East China Sea: machine learning has cut prediction errors in turbid waters by 81 percent, and the region's carbon budget is not what conventional models claimed. By classifying optical regimes and applying a CatBoost model, this study shows turbid waters act as a weak source, not a sink, overestimating uptake by nearly half. That correction matters. Understanding drives protection, and here, precision changes the map.
Southern Ocean’s Carbon Absorption Capacity Faces Uncertainty Under Climate Scenarios
The Southern Ocean has long acted as Earth's quiet carbon sink, but new research in *Science Advances* suggests its capacity to absorb emissions is not guaranteed under shifting climate scenarios. This uncertainty carries measurable weight for global climate modeling. We cannot assume stability where the system itself is changing. Understanding these dynamics is essential, not optional.
