Journal ArticleDOI
Observational contrains on the global atmospheric co2 budget.
TL;DR: The observed differences between the partial pressure of CO2 in the surface waters of the Northern Hemisphere and the atmosphere are too small for the oceans to be the major sink of fossil fuel CO2, and a large amount of the CO2 is apparently absorbed on the continents by terrestrial ecosystems.

TL;DR: In the past 50 years, the fraction of CO2 emissions that remains in the atmosphere each year has likely increased, from about 40% to 45%, and models suggest that this trend was caused by a decrease in the uptake of CO 2 by the carbon sinks in response to climate change and variability as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatological mean and decadal change in surface ocean pCO2, and net sea–air CO2 flux over the global oceans

TL;DR: In this article, a global mean distribution for surface water pCO2 over the global oceans in non-El Nino conditions has been constructed with spatial resolution of 4° (latitude) × 5° (longitude) for a reference year 2000 based upon about 3 million measurements of surface water PCO2 obtained from 1970 to 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the Wanninkhof dependence of the CO2 gas transfer velocity has been used to estimate the global ocean CO2 flux in the mean non-El Nino conditions for a reference year 1995.
