  • The IOC (Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission) of UNESCO released the Integrated Ocean Carbon Research (IOC-R) Report.
  • The report states that the ocean absorbs about 25% of human-produced carbon dioxide (CO).
  • It highlights a 10–20% difference in global estimates of ocean carbon absorption due to limited data and scientific gaps.
  • The report identifies five priority areas, including changes in the ocean carbon sink, role of marine biology, land–ocean–ice carbon exchange, industrial impacts, and marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR).
