Estimates of meridional transport of carbon dioxide from a 1998 Ronald Brown transect at 24.5 North in the North Atlantic Ocean (U.S. JGOFS Synthesis & Modeling Phase project results)
<p>We propose a comprehensive synthesis of carbon transport in the North Atlantic Ocean using newly developed procedures and a comprehensive dataset including WOCE/WHP, OACES, and German data. Carbon transport in the ocean is commonly ignored in global carbon models, which could caus...
