RECORDER Theme 2: Feedbacks
RECORDER Theme 2 will identify and constrain interactions between climate change, sea-level and sea-ice variability, and biogeochemical cycling, all of which ultimately determine the sensitivity of the Earth system to changing greenhouse-gas concentrations. We aim for a better understanding of how long-term feedbacks involving oceanic carbon cycling and marine ecosystems operate under climate conditions different from those of today.
