A perturbation simulation of CO2 uptake in an ocean general circulation model
Open accessAbstract
The uptake of anthropogenic CO 2 by the ocean is simulated using a perturbation approach in a three‐dimensional global general circulation model. Atmospheric p CO 2 is prescribed for the period 1750–1990 using the combined Siple ice core and Mauna Loa records. For the period 1980 to 1989, the average flux of CO 2 into the ocean is 1.9 GtC/yr. However the bomb radiocarbon simulation of Toggweiler et al. (1989 b) shows that the surface to deep ocean exchange in this model is too sluggish. Hence the CO 2 uptake calculated by the model is probably below the actual value. The observed atmospheric increase in 1980 to 1989 is 3.2 GtC/yr, for a combined atmosphere‐ocean total of 5.1 GtC/yr. This is comparable to the estimated fossil CO 2 production of 5.4 GtC/yr, implying that other sources and sinks (such as from deforestation, enhanced growth of land biota, and changes in the ocean carbon cycle) must be approximately in balance. The sensitivity of the uptake to the gas exchange rate is small: a 100% increase in gas exchange rate gives only a 9.2% increase in cumulative oceanic uptake. Details of the penetration into different oceanic regions are discussed.

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.
