Roles of biological and physical processes in driving seasonal air–sea CO2 flux in the Southern Ocean: New insights from CARIOCA pCO2
L Merlivat, J Boutin, D Antoine - Journal of Marine Systems, 2015 - Elsevier
On a mean annual basis, the Southern Ocean is a sink for atmospheric CO 2. However the
seasonality of the air–sea CO 2 flux in this region is poorly documented. We investigate …

A wintertime uptake window for anthropogenic CO2 in the North Pacific
KB Rodgers, JL Sarmiento, O Aumont… - Global …, 2008 - Wiley Online Library
An ocean model has been forced with NCEP reanalysis fluxes over 1948–2003 to evaluate
the pathways and timescales associated with the uptake of anthropogenic CO2 over the …

Assessing the seasonality of the oceanic sink for CO2 in the northern hemisphere
Seasonal CO2 fluxes are estimated from quarterly maps of ΔpCO2 (difference between the
oceanic and atmospheric partial pressure of CO2) and associated error maps. ΔpCO2 maps …

Arctic carbon cycling
The marine Arctic is considered a net carbon sink, with large regional differences in uptake
rates. More regional modelling and observational studies are required to reduce the …

Valuing blue carbon changes in the Arctic Ocean
CW Armstrong, NS Foley, D Slagstad… - Frontiers in Marine …, 2019 - frontiersin.org
The ocean capacity to store carbon is crucial, and currently absorbs about 25% CO2 supply
to the atmosphere. The ability to store carbon has an economic value, but such estimates …

Enhanced oceanic CO2 uptake along the rapidly changing West Antarctic Peninsula
The global ocean is an important sink for anthropogenic CO2 (ref.). Nearly half of the
oceanic CO2 uptake occurs in the Southern Ocean. Although the role of the Southern Ocean …

Winter weather controls net influx of atmospheric CO2 on the north-west European shelf
Shelf seas play an important role in the global carbon cycle, absorbing atmospheric carbon
dioxide (CO2) and exporting carbon (C) to the open ocean and sediments. The magnitude of …

Quantifying anthropogenic carbon inventory changes in the Pacific sector of the Southern Ocean
Abstract The Southern Ocean plays a major role in mediating the uptake, transport, and long-
term storage of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO 2) into the deep ocean. Examining the …
