项目摘要

Data-constrained process-based models of the modern and glacial ocean's carbon cycle will be developed and analyzed using a novel method. The method decomposes Dissolved Inorganic Carbon (DIC = Cpre + Creg) accurately into preformed (Cpre = Csat + Cdis) and regenerated (Creg = Corg + Ccaco3) components, where Csat = Csat,phy + Csat,bio is the equilibrium saturation and Cdis = Cdis,phy + Cdis,bio the disequilibrium, each with physical and biological contributions, and Csoft and Ccaco3 are organic (soft tissue) and calcium carbonate (hard tissue) components. DIC = Cphy + Cbio can thus be separated into physical Cphy = Csat,phy + Cdis,phy and biological Cbio = Csat,bio + Cdis,bio + Csoft + Ccaco3 parts. Perturbation experiments will be used to attribute the change of each component, DIC and atmospheric CO2 to changes in individual variables (circulation, sea ice, temperature, sea level and iron fluxes). Different viable equilibrium states will be produced for the modern and glacial ocean incorporating recent innovations in ocean physics, such as different mixing parameterizations and ventilation diagnostics, and in biogeochemistry, such as variable elemental (C:P) stoichiometry, dissolved iron fluxes, sediment interactions, cycling of Pa/Th, and land carbon changes. This approach will allow quantitative, process-based understanding of glacial-interglacial changes in ocean carbon storage including uncertainty estimates. It will also elucidate the response of carbon components to circulation changes. The decomposition will be extended to carbon isotopes (d13CDIC).

将使用一种新方法开发和分析现代和冰川海洋碳周期的基于数据约束的过程模型。 The method decomposes Dissolved Inorganic Carbon (DIC = Cpre + Creg) accurately into preformed (Cpre = Csat + Cdis) and regenerated (Creg = Corg + Ccaco3) components, where Csat = Csat,phy + Csat,bio is the equilibrium saturation and Cdis = Cdis,phy + Cdis,bio the disequilibrium, each with physical and生物学贡献，CSOFT和CCACO3是有机（软组织）和碳酸钙（硬组织）成分。 dic = cphy + cbio因此可以分成物理cphy = csat，phy + cdis，phy和生物cbio = csat，bio + cdis，bio + csoft + csoft + ccaco3零件。扰动实验将用于将每个组件，DIC和大气CO2的变化归因于单个变量的变化（循环，海冰，温度，海平面和铁通量）。将为现代和冰川海洋生产不同的可行平衡状态，并结合海洋物理学的最新创新，例如不同的混合参数和通风诊断，以及生物地球化学，例如可变元素（C：P）stoichiotemerry（C：P）stoichiimentry，溶解的铁通量，沉积物的交互，pa/th和Land carbon的循环。这种方法将允许对海洋碳储存中冰川间冰的变化进行定量，基于过程的理解，包括不确定性估计。它还将阐明碳成分对循环变化的响应。分解将扩展到碳同位素（D13CDIC）。
