Four Main Themes 1.Global Carbon Cycle 2.Are humans changing the chemistry of the ocean? 3.What are chemical controls and tracers for biological production? 4. What is the fate of organic matter made by biological production?

Global Carbon Cycle

Sabine et al. (2004) SCOPE Reservoirs and Fluxes

Mauna Loa CO 2 record – Started by David Keeling (SIO) NOAA-ERL Data Latest CO 2 Reading ppm July, 2014

Source of anthropogenic CO 2

Source: C. D. Keeling and T. P. Whorf; Etheridge et.al.; Barnola et.al.; (PAGES / IGBP); IPCC (BP 1950) Projected (2100) Current (2001) CO 2 Concentration (ppmv) Vostok Record Law Dome Record Mauna Loa Record IPCC IS92a Scenario

Carbon Tracker Atmospheric CO2 from 800,000 years ago to the present

Are Humans Changing the Composition of the Ocean? Yes, in may ways! Examples include: Ocean Acidification Lead and Mercury distributions Nitrate distributions Fukushima radionuclides

Because the ocean mixes slowly, half of the anthropogenic CO 2 stored in the oceans is found in the upper 10% of the ocean. Sabine et al. Science (2004) Global Anthropogenic CO 2 Inventory = 118±19 Pg C
