Previous assessments of CO<sub>2</sub> removal (CDR) have primarily focused on the hysteresis and invertibility of climate change itself, overlooking quantitative analysis of potential economic impacts of climate change via CDR. In this study, we first develop a powerful neural network model, EconClimNet, trained on decades of economic data from 1,554 sub-national regions worldwide and 111 climate indices derived from the fifth-generation ECMWF atmospheric reanalysis (ERA5). Compared to popular machine learning algorithms used in the Earth science community, EconClimNet achieves superior performance in capturing the intricate relationship between climate indices and economic outcomes. On this basis, we apply EconClimNet to the outputs from idealized CO<sub>2</sub> ramp-up and ramp-down experiments from phase 6 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP6). It is found that altering climate trajectories through idealized CDR can yield significant long-term economic benefits globally, with Oceania overall positioned to experience the greatest gains with an increasing trend of about 1.41 [0.73-8.76] million USD year<sup>-1</sup>. Unequal economic effects also emerge across income levels. Rich countries see more benefits (an increasing trend of about 1.56 [0.31-6.21] million USD year<sup>-1</sup>) via CDR, mainly contributed by services (an increasing trend of about 0.03 [0.00-0.23] million USD year<sup>-1</sup>). Our findings underscore the need for governments to foster the innovation, development, and prudent deployment of CDR technologies, as well as to advance global CDR strategies that prioritize vulnerable nations from a climate justice perspective.</p>","PeriodicalId":36121,"journal":{"name":"The Innovation","volume":"7 10","pages":"101505"},"PeriodicalIF":39.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13673538/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149216952","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we identified tropical Atlantic and Pacific sea surface temperature (SST) gradients as the key drivers of the summer Atlantic Niño-winter ENSO connection. In detail, zonal SST gradients over the tropical Atlantic, driven by wind-evaporation-SST feedback, regulate the Atlantic Niño-ENSO connection by modulating the cross-basin Walker circulation between the tropical western Atlantic and eastern Pacific. Under weak zonal SST gradients, the Gill-Matsuno-type response to the Atlantic Niño exhibits stronger ascending motion over the tropical western Atlantic than under strong gradient conditions. The meridional SST gradients over the tropical eastern Pacific enhance anomalous descent that helps to establish the cross-basin Walker circulation. Consequently, the enhanced Pacific Walker circulation contributes to the development of La Niña and strengthens the Atlantic Niño-ENSO connection. Model sensitivity experiments confirm this mechanism. This study has identified new drivers of tropical Atlantic-Pacific cross-basin linkages that have significant implications for ENSO prediction.</p>","PeriodicalId":36121,"journal":{"name":"The Innovation","volume":"7 10","pages":"101502"},"PeriodicalIF":39.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13673539/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149216874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
