海洋生物泵的变化：创新模型和诊断。该项目旨在量化海洋生物泵如何将新形成的有机物质输出到海洋内部，以应对环境变化。生物泵是全球碳和氧循环的关键控制，因此也是海洋生物生存能力的关键控制。新的，有效的数值模型将开发和高度创新的数学方法进行分析。预期成果是优化的预测模型和对海洋碳循环、酸化和氧化未来可能演变的新理解。这将带来巨大的好处，如预测未来海洋健康状况，确定对变化敏感的过程，以及海洋资源管理战略。

Changes in the ocean's biological pump: innovative models and diagnostics. This Project aims to quantify how the ocean’s biological pump, which exports newly formed organic matter into the ocean interior, responds to environmental change. The biological pump is a key control on the global carbon and oxygen cycles, and hence on the viability of marine life. New, efficient numerical models will be developed and analysed with highly innovative mathematical methods. Expected outcomes are optimised predictive models and a new understanding of the possible future evolutions of the ocean carbon cycle, acidification, and oxygenation. This should provide significant benefits such as predictions of future ocean health, identification of processes that are sensitive to change, and strategies for marine resource management.
