Whale carbon and oxygen flux
Oceanic blue carbon includes the carbon stored through the actions of marine life, from krill to whales. Understanding how marine vertebrates contribute to carbon storage can help recognize their potential role in climate change mitigation. The infographic shows nine different mechanisms that have been identified through which marine vertebrates play a role in the oceanic carbon cycle.
