'The challenges of monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV) or marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR)'

Abstract

There is scientific consensus that industrial-scale carbon dioxide removal (CDR) from the atmosphere will be necessary to meet the Paris Agreement's goal of keeping the rise in global temperature to within 1.5 or 2°C. By enhancing the ocean's natural capacity for carbon uptake and long-term storage, marine CDR (mCDR) may have the potential to remove carbon at the necessary scales. While investments are pouring into the design and early-stage deployment of mCDR technologies, the ocean is a complex ecosystem and a constantly moving fluid, posing challenges to quantifying the efficiency and environmental safety of mCDR projects.

In this talk, David Ho will introduce some of the proposed mCDR techniques, discuss the challenges of monitoring, reporting, and verification (MRV), and suggest a path forward that combines observations and numerical models so that mCDR techniques have the potential to be viable climate solutions.
