Abruptly attenuated carbon sequestration with Weddell Sea dense waters by 2100
Weddell Sea dense water formation facilitates carbon sequestration on centennial time scales. The authors show that for a high-emission scenario, carbon sequestration is reduced by 2100 due to water-mass property changes on the continental shelf.
