MANFREDI MANIZZA

PROJECT ______
GEOSCIENCES RESEARCH DIV.

Manfredi Manizza is studying how greenhouse gases from the atmosphere are absorbed, circulated, and released in ocean water, particularly in the Southern Ocean.

His research is providing insight into how the movement of gas-enriched seawater in this area may affect climate as a system and also influence CO2 sequestration technology, with which some countries hope to limit global warming by forcing the gas into chambers beneath the earth’s surface.
