Statistics

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Subduction and diapycnal mixing depend on oceanographic conditions that vary by location, seasonally, interannually, and with weather.

    “Both processes depend on oceanographic conditions that vary by location, as well as seasonally, interannually, and with weather. 59,61”
  • In less ideal locations, equilibration may take significantly longer (>15 years) as shallow overturning and a deep mixed layer decrease ∆pCO2.

    “However, in less ideal locations, equilibration may take signific antly longer (>15 years) as shallow overturning and a deep mixed layer decrease ∆pCO 2. 59”
  • Complete equilibration of added alkalinity with the atmosphere can take anywhere from months to decades, depending on local and regional conditions.

    “Complete equilibration can take anywhere from months to decades, depending on local and regional conditions. 59”
  • Efficiency losses associated with mineral sinking and precipitation to solids may occur essentially immediately, over seconds to days, whereas losses to incomplete mineral dissolution and incomplete air-sea flux will gradually decrease over time, on the scale of years.

    “For example, efficiency losses associated with mineral sinking and precipitation to solids may occur essentially immediately, over the course of seconds to days, whereas losses to incomplete mineral dissolution, and incomplete air-sea flux will gradually decrease over time, on the scale of years. 15,59”

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.
