Are Climate Geoengineering Technologies Being Patented? An Overview

Climate, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 13(4), P. 77 - 77

Published: April 7, 2025

Efforts to address anthropogenic climate change have been focused sensibly on mitigation and adaptation. However, given the difficulties in implementation of a rapid global process, increasing attention is being geoengineering as way countervail some impacts. This development has increased private investment research last few years, leading patent filing. The article examines recent evolution patents emerging field technologies. Despite secrecy surrounding geoengineering, especially solar radiation management at state level, databases provide transparency, offering technical details, market insights, information about key players. Patents, published 18 months after filing, reveal valuable data technologies, targeted markets, involved stakeholders. International Patent Classification (IPC) Cooperative (CPC) are used. focus present analysis sub-domains carbon dioxide removal those held by large oil producer corporations. results highlight filed controversial area SRM. growing economic significance requires protection innovations through coupled with governance system based justice ethical responsibility.

Subarctic sugar kelp (Saccharina latissima, Phaeophyceae) summer productivity and contribution to carbon budgets

Journal of Phycology, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Nov. 25, 2024

Abstract Kelp forests are known to be very productive ecosystems and constitute a central component of the marine carbon cycle in coastal areas. Nevertheless, crucial carbon‐related data missing able include them properly budgets. A thorough understanding kelp contribution is especially important regions prone experiencing strong seasonal fluctuations environmental conditions, such as subarctic regions. This study aimed quantify primary productivity through growth rates oxygen fluxes dominant species regions, Saccharina latissima , link parameters. Our results showed that coincided with high light levels July most August, while stayed similar all summer. An overall decline proxies happened from late suggesting slowing down S. metabolism. The estimated quantity stored tissue during represented 6% 28% gross productivity. Further research needed explore how much transits living different seasons, better understand
