Are there pockets of liquid carbon dioxide in Earth’s oceans?
Earth ScienceAsked by: Crystal Jones Quick answer is no, however there are methane clathrates somewhere down there and possibly also carbon dioxide clathrates as well. How much CO2 is trapped in the ocean? While previous estimates put the ocean sink at around 2bn tonnes of CO2 per year, we find that it could be 0.8-09bn tonnes

Lanes of flat ocean surface in coastal waters
Earth ScienceAsked by: Aaron Zilla What are the lines on the surface of the ocean? These patches are actually called windrows, and they are usually parallel lines of “stuff” sometime stretching for more than a kilometer. In our waters they are composed largely of sargassum, foam/bubbles, and a mixture of floating polyfoam, plastic, and other jetsam
