Monitoring the vast amount of heat stored in Earth's warming oceans is challenging. Scientists at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center are developing a novel satellite-based method using magnetic field observations to measure ocean heat content.

This technique leverages seawater's electrical conductivity, which changes with temperature. As conductive ocean water moves, it creates slight magnetic field fluctuations detectable by satellites. This approach promises the first global, all-depth ocean heat measurements from space.

Nature-based solutions (NbS) offer multiple benefits for business, nature, and people, yet their adoption by companies to meet climate goals and mitigate risks remains limited. Increased corporate engagement across value chains is crucial for achieving a net-zero, nature-positive world.

CISL acknowledges the challenges companies face in adopting NbS, particularly in quantifying benefits for initial projects like regenerative agriculture. To address this, CISL, with support from the We Mean Business Coalition, launched a diagnostic tool in March 2022 to help unlock NbS investments within value chains.

An upcoming webinar, part of CISL’s project to support business to #GetNBSready, will explore progress on nature-positive ambitions, discuss implementation challenges, and demonstrate how this tool can assist companies.
