DTO-BioFlow DUC 7 - Integrating Carbon Flux Modelling into Marine Ecosystem Assessment

This factsheet presents DUC7: Ecosystem services, including carbon sequestration, one of the Demonstrator Use Cases (DUCs) developed within the DTO-BioFlow project. It is intended for stakeholders in the biogeochemical oceanography community, as well as governance actors focused on marine carbon sequestration and marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) initiatives.

DUC7 develops modelling frameworks to quantify carbon fluxes and ecosystem services at multiple spatial and temporal scales, supporting climate-relevant ocean assessments.

The Demonstrator Use Cases (DUCs) are at the core of DTO-BioFlow, showcasing how biodiversity observations, AI models, and the Digital Twin of the Ocean (DTO) can deliver digital solutions for marine sustainability.
