With a fixed ocean circulation and climatology, it is difficult to account for the importance of feedbacks with climate except in a highly parameterized manner.
“With a fixed ocean circulation and climatology it is difficult to account for the importance of feedbacks with climate except in a highly parameterized manner [Archer et al., 2004;Archer, 2005].”
From Regulation of atmospheric CO <sub>2</sub> by deep‐sea sediments in an Earth system model (2007) · cites this paper as Archer et al., 2004
Section 4.1.1 describes Hamocc2 as an offline model in which temperature changes affect CO₂ solubility but not ocean circulation; it imposes a uniform temperature response to atmospheric CO₂. The Fig. 3 caption describes that response as “hard wired” into the model. These passages support the claim’s description of parameterized climate feedback under fixed circulation, but do not establish the broader assertion that accounting for such feedbacks is generally difficult except in that manner.

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.
