Toward a mechanistic understanding of the decadal trends
[1] We investigate the multidecadal and decadal trends in the flux of CO 2 between the atmosphere and the Southern Ocean using output from hindcast simulations of an ocean circulation model with embedded biogeochemistry. The simulations are run with NCEP-1 forcing under both preindustrial and histor...
