Climatological distribution of aragonite saturation state in the global oceans
Open accessAbstract
Aragonite saturation state (Ω arag ) in surface and subsurface waters of the global oceans was calculated from up‐to‐date (through the year of 2012) ocean station dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and total alkalinity (TA) data. Surface Ω arag in the open ocean was always supersaturated (Ω > 1), ranging between 1.1 and 4.2. It was above 2.0 (2.0–4.2) between 40°N and 40°S but decreased toward higher latitude to below 1.5 in polar areas. The influences of water temperature on the TA/DIC ratio, combined with the temperature effects on inorganic carbon equilibrium and apparent solubility product ( K ′ sp ), explain the latitudinal differences in surface Ω arag . Vertically, Ω arag was highest in the surface mixed layer. Higher hydrostatic pressure, lower water temperature, and more CO 2 buildup from biological activity in the absence of air‐sea gas exchange helped maintain lower Ω arag in the deep ocean. Below the thermocline, aerobic decomposition of organic matter along the pathway of global thermohaline circulation played an important role in controlling Ω arag distributions. Seasonally, surface Ω arag above 30° latitudes was about 0.06 to 0.55 higher during warmer months than during colder months in the open‐ocean waters of both hemispheres. Decadal changes of Ω arag in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans showed that Ω arag in waters shallower than 100 m depth decreased by 0.10 ± 0.09 (−0.40 ± 0.37% yr −1 ) on average from the decade spanning 1989–1998 to the decade spanning 1998–2010.

A recent estimate sets the current Ωarag at about 2.8, approximately 81% of the preindustrial value.
“A recent estimate sets the current Ωarag at ~2.8 (71) (see the Supplementary Materials), approximately 81% of the preindustrial value.”
From Earth beyond six of nine planetary boundaries (2023) · cites this paper as [71]
The Methods and section 3.1 report a global surface Ωarag estimate referenced to 2000, but its area-weighted value is 3.03, not ~2.8. The Introduction says saturation states had fallen to ~84% of preindustrial values by 2000; it does not give the claimed current estimate of 81%. (LLM, conf=0.85)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
