The concentration of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) is increasing at extraordinary rates (e.g. Le Quéré et al. 2016). Effectively mitigating the impacts of increasing atmospheric CO2 on climate change, the ocean has absorbed roughly 30 % of the anthropogenic CO2 produced since the Industrial Revol...
