  Title Saturation of the Southern Ocean CO2 Sink Due to Recent Climate Change Type Book Chapter
  Year (down) 2007 Publication Science Abbreviated Journal Science  
  Volume Issue 5832 Pages 1735-1738  
  Keywords  
  Abstract Based on observed atmospheric CO2 concentration and an inverse method, we estimate that the Southern Ocean sink of CO2 has weakened between 1981 and 2004 by 0.08 PgC/y per decade relative to the trend expected from the large increase in atmospheric CO2. This weakening is attributed to the observed increase in Southern Ocean winds resulting from human activities and projected to continue in the future. Consequences include a reduction in the efficiency of the Southern Ocean sink of CO2 in the short term (~25 years) and possibly a higher level of stabilization of atmospheric CO2 on a multicentury time scale.
