Decadal predictions of the North Atlantic CO2 uptake

Predictability of variations in the ocean carbon sink has remained unexplored in previous decadal prediction studies based on modern Earth system models. Here, the authors show that potential predictive skill of the ocean CO2uptake in the North Atlantic western subpolar gyre region is up to 4–7 year...
