While researchers have long suspected that whales are key players in the ocean’s carbon cycle, quantifying exactly how these animals alter the seas — and what we lost with their decimation a century ago — has proved difficult.
Scientists solve a mystery and show the damaging domino effect of one dramatic shift in the marine ecosystem.
In addition, whales indirectly affect the ocean carbon cycle through a less majestic but critically important byproduct: their poop. The paper is “an excellent synthesis of the progress that has been made in the past decade” on quantifying whales’ role in the carbon cycle, said, a senior scientist and veterinarian with the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution who was not involved with the work.
Whales are also quite literally a slippery population to measure, and the effect of whale waste in particular is difficult to pin down. What’s clear from their collective research, however, is that the more whales there are, the healthier the ocean is.
