利用中国南极考察和北极科学考察在南大洋和西北冰洋开展的连续围绕大气和表层海水pCO₂及其相关参数观测和海气CO₂通量评估，阐述南大洋和西北冰洋碳池的年际变化性，分析探讨其脆弱性，并展望了极区海洋碳池探测工程技术。

Chinese national arctic and antarctic research expeditions (CHINARE) have continuously conducted out underway sea-air pCO₂ and its relative parameters measurements in the Southern Ocean and the western Arctic Ocean for 10 years. The distribution of surface pCO₂ and sea-air fluxes of CO₂ were analyzed to understand variability of carbon pools for both oceans. Vulnerability of the both carbon pools was appreciated for their roles in world oceanic carbon cycle. Exploring engineering technology was also discussed to develop a polar oceanic carbon pools observatory.
