Revision of the global carbon budget due to changing air‐sea oxygen fluxes

Abstract

Carbon budgets inferred from measurements of the atmospheric oxygen to nitrogen ratio (O 2/N 2) are revised considering sea‐to‐air fluxes of O 2 and N 2 in response to global warming and volcanic eruptions. Observational estimates of changes in ocean heat content are combined with a model‐derived relationship between changes in atmospheric O 2/N 2 due to oceanic outgassing and heat fluxes to estimate ocean O 2 outgassing. The inferred terrestrial carbon sink for the 1990s is reduced by a factor of two compared with the most recent estimate by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). This also improves the agreement between calculated ocean carbon uptake rates and estimates from global carbon cycle models, which indicate a higher ocean carbon uptake during the 1990s than the 1980s. The simulated decrease in oceanic O 2 concentrations is in qualitative agreement with observed trends in oceanic O 2 concentrations.

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.
