Understanding modelled sea-air CO2 flux biases in the Southern Ocean through the seasonal cycle
The Southern Ocean forms a vital component of the earth system as a sink of CO2 and heat, taking over 40% of the annual oceanic CO2 uptake (75% of global heat uptake), slowing down the accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere and thus the rate of climate change. However, recent studies based on the Cou...
