Climate, carbon cycling, and deep-ocean ecosystems.
Climate variation affects surface ocean processes and the production of organic carbon, which ultimately comprises the primary food supply to the deep-sea ecosystems that occupy approximately 60% of the Earth's surface. Warming trends in atmospheric and upper ocean temperatures, attributed to anthropogenic influence, have occurred over the past four decades. Changes in upper ocean temperature i...
متن کاملOcean Acidification and Oceanic Carbon Cycling
The concentration of atmospheric CO2 is increasing due to emissions from burning of fossil fuels and changes in land use. Part of this “anthropogenic CO2” invades the oceans causing a decrease of seawater pH; this process is called “ocean acidification.” The lowered pH, but also the concomitant changes in other properties of the carbonate system, affects marine life and the cycling of carbon in...
متن کاملProceedings of the SIGIR 2008 Workshop on Focused Retrieval Held in Singapore , 24 July 2008
This paper introduces a theoretical framework for focused retrieval, based on a formalism called the annotation graph. Annotation graph-based retrieval provides a rich retrieval representation that directly supports query-time constraintchecking of arbitrary relations. This representation can support focused retrieval tasks, such as Question Answering systems, which often have information needs...
متن کاملProceedings of the SIGIR 2008 Workshop on Mobile Information Retrieval 24 July 2008 , Singapore
This is a survey how cell-phones are interacting with a real world with I/O devices in information retrieval. Many cell-phones are now being equipped with many I/O devices including GPS, microphones, CCD/CMOS cameras, and motion-sensors. Thus content delivery, interaction with contents, and e-commerce are going to be associated with real environments which will bring us context-aware(real-world...
متن کاملOcean carbon sinks and international climate policy
Terrestrial vegetation sinks have entered the Kyoto Protocol as offsets for anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions, but ocean sinks have escaped attention. Ocean sinks are as unexplored and uncertain as were the terrestrial sinks at the time of negotiation of the Kyoto Protocol. It is not unlikely that certain countries will advocate the inclusion of ocean carbon sinks to reduce their emission ...
