Climate Change 2021 – The Physical Science Basis, Annex VII: Glossary, written by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and published by Cambridge University Press in 2023, defines artificial ocean upwelling (AOUpw) as: ‘A potential carbon dioxide removal (CDR) method that aims to artificially pump up cooler, nutrient-rich waters from deep in the ocean to the surface. The aim is to stimulate phytoplankton activity and thereby increase ocean CO2 uptake.’
