A new NOAA analysis shows US emissions of the super-potent greenhouse gas sulfur hexafluoride have declined over 2007-2018, likely due to successful mitigation efforts by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the electric power industry.

NOAA’s Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory has released “The Ocean: Earth’s Carbon Dioxide Sponge,” the latest video in the PMEL at Work short video series.

While much is understood about greenhouse gas contributions to surface warming, less is understood about impacts on ocean circulation. A new study uses a climate model to quantify the role of changes to the wind-driven ocean circulation onto global air temperature warming.
