  Mitigation of climate change will highly rely on a carbon emission trajectory
that achieves carbon neutrality by the 2050s. The ocean plays a critical role
in modulating climate change by sequestering CO2 from the atmosphere. Relying
on the multidisciplinary cutting-edge methodologies and technologies, the
near-real-time monitoring of global ocean carbon sinks from January 2022 to
July 2023 aims to provide the world's latest assessment of monthly and gridded
global ocean carbon sinks based on machine learning and other data science
technologies. The project will help us find a robust route to deal with climate
change, which will significantly promote the ocean carbon sinks research and
will be of great interest for policy makers, researchers, and the public. This
research aims to build up an integrated machine learning framework and
methodology for assessing global ocean carbon neutral process; development of
near-real-time dataset; development of visualization platform; research papers
published in international prestigious journals; an executive report openly
accessible to policy makers and the public.
