Researchers at the University of Alaska Fairbanks and their industry partners have advanced the technology available to measure carbon dioxide in the ocean.

Carbon dioxide, released when humans burn coal, oil and gas, is called a greenhouse gas because it traps heat in the atmosphere and contributes to climate warming.

The ocean has slowed the effects of climate change by absorbing about a third of carbon dioxide emissions since the industrial revolution began.
