TL;DR: The oceanic sink for anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) over the period 1994 to 2007 is estimated to be 31 ± 4% of the global anthropogenic CO2 emissions over this period, consistent with the expectation of the ocean uptake having increased in proportion to the rise in atmospheric CO2.

TL;DR: It is shown that air-sea CO2 disequilibrium is the dominant mode of spatial variability for surface pH, and why pH and calcium carbonate mineral saturation states, two important metrics for OA, show contrasting spatial variability.

TL;DR: In 2017, the dominant greenhouse gases released into Earth's atmosphere-carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide-reached new record highs. as mentioned in this paper The annual global average carbon dioxide concentration at Earth's surface for 2017 was 405.0 ± 0.1 ppm, 2.2 ppm greater than for 2016 and the highest in the modern atmospheric measurement record and in ice core records dating back as far as 800 000 years.

TL;DR: In this paper, surface and subsurface waters of the global oceans were calculated from up-to-date (through the year of 2012) ocean station dissolved inorganic carbon and total alkalinity (TA) data.

TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial and temporal distribution of anthropogenic CO2 (Canth) within the CO2-rich waters is largely unknown, and the authors adapt the multiple linear regression approach to utilize the GO-SHIP Repeat Hydrography data from the northeast Pacific to establish an annually updated relationship between Canth and potential density.
