Inter-annual variability of the carbon dioxide oceanic sink south of Tasmania
International audience We compiled a large data-set from 22 cruises spanning from 1991 to 2003, of the partial pressure of CO 2 (pCO 2 ) in surface waters over the continental shelf (CS) and adjacent open ocean (43° to 46° S; 145° to 150° E), south of Tasmania. Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalie...

description |
International audience We compiled a large data-set from 22 cruises spanning from 1991 to 2003, of the partial pressure of CO 2 (pCO 2 ) in surface waters over the continental shelf (CS) and adjacent open ocean (43° to 46° S; 145° to 150° E), south of Tasmania. Sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies (as intense as 2°C) are apparent in the subtropical zone (STZ) and subAntarctic zone (SAZ). These SST anomalies also occur on the CS, and seem to be related to large-scale coupled atmosphere-ocean oscillations. Anomalies of pCO 2 normalized to a constant temperature are negatively related to SST anomalies. A depressed winter-time vertical input of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) during phases of positive SST anomalies, related to a poleward shift of westerly winds, and a concomitant local decrease in wind stress are the likely cause of the negative relationship between pCO 2 and SST anomalies. The observed trend is an increase of the sink for atmospheric CO 2 associated with positive SST anomalies, although strongly modulated by inter-annual variability of wind speed. Assuming that phases of positive SST anomalies are indicative of the future evolution of regional ocean biogeochemistry under global warming, we show using a purely observational based approach that some provinces of the Southern Ocean could provide a potential negative feedback on increasing atmospheric CO 2 . |
