MODELING OF OCEANIC CARBON CYCLE
We develop an ocean general circulation model which includes biogeochemical processes (biogeochemical general circulation model, B-GCM). B-GCM can deal not only with current field, temperature, and salinity, but also with biogeochemical tracers such as phosphate, dissolved oxygen, alkalinity, total...

The steady state obtained in our model well reproduces the following principal observed features : The phosphate concentration and the Δ^<14>C value increase along the flow path of the deep circulation from the North Atlantic to the North Pacific. The oxygen concentration and the δ^<13>C value decreases along the deep circulation path. Phosphate maximum and oxygen minimum are at about 1km depth, and the lysocline lies above the depth of 1km in the North Pacific.

In this case, a weak and less saline intermediate water (North Atlantic Intermediate Water, NAIW) forms at about 1km depth instead of forming North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW). The deep water under the depth of 1km is stagnant (very weak Antarctic Bottom Water), which supports the hypothesis suggested from the Cd/Ca ratio (E.A. BOYLE; Nature, 331,55,1988). The lysocline in the North Atlantic lies at about 1km depth, which also partially supports Boyle's alkalinity hypothesis.
