This study examines the role of processes transporting tracers across the Polar Front (PF) in
the depth interval between the surface and major topographic sills, which this study refers to …

Various human activities, including fossil fuel combustion and forest clearing, emit about
eight petagrams (or billion tons) of carbon in the form of CO₂ into the atmosphere annually …

A feed-forward neural network is used to create a monthly climatology of the sea surface
fugacity of CO 2 (f CO 2) on a 1°× 1° spatial resolution. Using 127 880 data points from 1990 …

Observations of CO₂ accumulation in the atmosphere and ocean show that they are
approximately equal to the total amount emitted by burning of fossil fuels since 1850. A mass …
