Short summary
The continuous uptake of atmospheric CO2 by the ocean leads to decreasing seawater pH, which is an ongoing threat to the marine ecosystem. This pH change has been globally documented in the surface ocean, but information is limited below the surface. Here, we present a monthly 1° gridded product of global seawater pH based on a machine learning method and real pH observations. The pH product covers the years from 1992 to 2020 and depths from 0 to 2000 m.

Particulate organic carbon plays a vital role in the ocean's carbon cycle, yet its transformation involves complex processes that are not fully understood. This study examines the vertical distribution of stable carbon isotopes in the Tropical Northwestern Pacific, identifying three distinct biogeochemical layers of POC transformation, and contributes to a deeper understanding of the ocean's carbon cycle.

We studied how tiny particles in the ocean help move carbon from surface waters to the deep sea along the South China Sea slope. Using underwater cameras, we found that large particles, although fewer in number, carry most of the carbon downward. Ocean eddies strongly influenced this process. Our research helps explain how the ocean naturally stores carbon and why this process varies across regions and depths.

Volatile chlorinated hydrocarbons (VCHCs) harm the ozone layer and climate, but the role of the Western Pacific in their atmospheric budget is unclear. This study showed ocean ventilation and terrestrial transport shape VCHCs levels. The Western Pacific emits some VCHCs while absorbing CCl4, helping reduce its levels in Eastern Asia. These findings highlight the ocean’s key role in regulating atmospheric VCHCs and provide essential data to refine global estimates of VCHCs atmospheric budgets.

Our study provides a comprehensive assessment of microzooplankton ciliate trait structure, focusing on size spectrum, biodiversity, and biotic-abiotic interplay based on 175 stations (1117 samples) across five temperature zones, which offered an ideal paradigm for study the plankton response to future climate change. The study is full fill the scope of the Ocean Science in the ocean's physical, biogeochemical and biological and ecosystem properties and processes.

Observational gridded products are essential for understanding the ocean, the atmosphere, and climate change; they support policy decisions and socioeconomic developments. This study provides an update of an ocean subsurface temperature and ocean heat content gridded product, named the IAPv4 data product, which is available for the upper 6000 m (119 levels) since 1940 (more reliable after ~1955) for monthly and 1° × 1° temporal and spatial resolutions.

In this paper, we present the first edition of a global database compiling previously published and unpublished measurements of dissolved organic matter (DOM) collected in coastal waters (CoastDOM v1). Overall, the CoastDOM v1 dataset will be useful to identify global spatial and temporal patterns and to facilitate reuse in studies aimed at better characterizing local biogeochemical processes and identifying a baseline for modelling future changes in coastal waters.

The present study reported on diel variations of planktonic ciliate community structure in the nSCS and tWP, and ciliate do preformed diel vertical migrations. In both the nSCS and tWP, abundance proportions of large size-fraction aloricate ciliates in night were higher than in day. While for tintinnids, abundance proportion of large lorica oral diameter in night were lower than in day.

Short summary
A predictor selection algorithm was constructed to decrease the predicting error in the surface ocean partial pressure of CO2 (pCO2) mapping by finding better combinations of pCO2 predictors in different regions. Compared with previous research using the same combination of predictors in all regions, using different predictors selected by the algorithm in different regions can effectively decrease pCO2 predicting errors.
