This three-year Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Ocean Sciences provides $185,519 to The Trustees of Columbia University for collaborative research probing the ventilation efficiency of the deep ocean with conservative dissolved gas tracers in archived samples. The research directly supports the goals of the NSF's Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050) to strengthen understanding of the integrated Earth system through basic research in atmospheric, earth, and ocean sciences. Specifically, the University will analyze historic ocean samples to better quantify the transport and mixing of gases in the deep ocean, yielding new insights into global ocean circulation and ventilation patterns over time. The findings will fill key data gaps and help assess the role of deep ocean circulation in redistributing heat, carbon, oxygen and other properties globally.
