An Update on the Evolving Legal Landscape for Ocean-Based Carbon Dioxide Removal: Key Outcomes of the October 2023 Meeting of the Parties to the London Convention and Protocol - Climate Law Blog

In a blog post last month, I wrote about the growing interest in ocean-based carbon dioxide removal (CDR), and the complex legal issues it raises. Much of the legal complexity surrounding ocean CDR stems from the fact that the ocean is a shared resource in which all countries, both coastal and landlocked, have an interest. […]

Postdoctoral Investigator – Coupled physical-biogeochemical modeling (ROMS) for Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement in Woods Hole, Massachusetts | Careers at Woods Hole, MA

Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution is currently searching for a Postdoctoral Investigator to join the Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry Department. This is a temporary, full-time, exempt position, and is eligible for benefits. The initial appointment will be for one year with annual renewal up to at least two years. Renewal of the appointment is conditional on the PDI making satisfactory progress during the prior year(s) and continuation of funding.   This position involves coupled physical-biogeochemical modeling for ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE), a promising approach for removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, as identified by a recent report from the National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine.   The institution has a top-rated postdoctoral program (www.whoi.edu/postdoctoral/) that supports a dynamic postdoctoral community with formal mentoring and career guidance programs. While the primary focus of the work will be in research, the Postdoctoral Investigator will have the opportunity to participate in educational and outreach activities associated with the project.   Online application forms should be submitted with a cover letter, complete curriculum vitae, up to three relevant publications, and the names and contact information for at least three professional references. Applications will be reviewed upon submission.  The successful candidate is expected to start the appointment in late 2023.   Initial consideration will be given to applications received before August 1, 2023.

SPD - Legal Considerations relevant to the Research of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement

Start-ups are adding antacids to the ocean to slow global warming. Will it work?

A New York experiment is part of a commercial race to develop ocean-based technologies to extract carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
