  2. The North Atlantic observing system An example of international synthesis (CARBOOCEAN) U.Shuster, 2008, SOCOVV Meeting

  3. The team: Dorothee Bakker, Nick Bates, Robert Castle, Aymeric Chazottes, Antoine Corbière, Melchor González-Dávila, Betty Huss, Truls Johannesen, Arne Körtzinger, Nathalie Lefèvre, Heike Lüger, Nicolas Metzl, Cyril Moulin, Jon Olafsson, Are Olsen, Abdiraman Omar, Tony Padin, Fiz Pérez, Dennis Pierrot, Aida Ríos, Magdalena Santana-Casiano, Ute Schuster, Tobias Steinhoff, Kevin Sullivan, Taro Takahashi, Maciej Telszewski, Doug Wallace, Rik Wanninkhof, Andy Watson , …and many others

  4. Update from Seattle 02.10.2008 Benjamin working in symphony with Steve Hankings 6.5 mill. data points at the moment.

  5. SOCOVV meeting: 5 Regional groups identified with PIs • - different progress in different regions (data availability, sampling and synthesis) • different questions: Interannual variability, decadal trends, River outflows, sea level change, forcing and feedbacks, climate index (ENSO, PDO, NAO, SAM, IOD, ….),… Coastal- Marg. Sea A. Chen, A. Borges Atlantic U. Schuster N. Lefevre Pacific R. Feely Indian V. Sarma Southern Ocean, B.Tilbrook

  6. Sea surface pCO2 maps by MLR pCO2 [μatm]

  7. CO2 fluxes into the North Atlantic The future ????????????? 1995 climatology 0.5 CarboOcean 0.4 CAVASSOO era 0.3 Air-to-sea flux [Pg C year-1] 0.2 ? 0.1 0 Year Adapted from Schuster and Watson (2007), JGR Watson et al. (2008), in preparation

  8. New CO2 time-series set up during CARBOOCEAN Two new CO2 time-series in the Atlantic 6oS, 10oW: since June 2006 (in the South Equatorial Current) 8oN, 38oW: since April 2008 (in the North Equatorial Counter Current) SeaWiFs, September 2003 CO2 sensor (CARIOCA) on PIRATA mooring 10W 40W 10S

  9. Results from 6oS, 10oW (year 2006) CO2 outgassing at this site except some periods (June 2006) when near equilibrium conditions are observed. Strong diurnal cycle after the upwelling season (see poster of Parard et al.) DIC calculated from TA=f(S) and fCO2. Diurnal cycle observed in Sep. 2006 (from Lefèvre et al., 2008)

  10. Status of time-series SEP. 2008 4 DEC. 2008 • 6o, 10oW • June 2006 - June 2007: data validated • June 2007 - Sep. 2008: sensor back for calibration • Sep. 2008 - Present: working (figure above) • 8oN, 38oW • April 2008 - Present: working (some drift observed)

  11. Meetings 2007 Kiel in March Delmenhorst in Nov./Dec. Sponsored by: Hanse Wissenschaftskolleg, IOCCP and CarboOcean

  12. Data coverage The northern North Atlantic The Nordic Seas

  13. Data coverage Southern Ocean North and Central Atlantic

  14. 85 cruises 28 „Core cruises“ 7 of the „core cruises“ are GLODAP cruises (provides „golden standard“ and consistency with GLODAP). 1st step: Consisteny of „core cruises“. 2nd step: Consistency of „leaf-cruises“ vs. „core cruises“ North Atlantic WG

  15. This is the main tool. We use only deep data (> 1500 m). Crossovers are made on density surfaces (on depth for salinity) Offsets considered multiplicative for nutrients and oxygen. Offsets considered additive for salinity, DIC, alkalinity and pH. Weighted offset and uncertainty of the Crossover. Crossover analysis

  16. Defining individual cruise adjustments Results from inversions of the cross overs guide 2nd level QC An interactive website is the primary forum for the CARINA members.

  17. Next steps • Finalizing the Crossover analysis in early 2008 • Final assessment of adjustments (or, the lack of) by May 2008. All lines of evidence uploaded on the website. • Final, „wrap-up“ meeting in Paris Meeting (June 18-19). Consensus on adjustments (or lack of). • Product online shortly after that (late June?)

  18. FP7 Cooperation Specific Programme for 2008Chapter 6: Environment (including Climate Change)Call ENV.2008.4.1.2.1 Monitoring and observing oxygen depletion throughout the different Earth system components

  19. Study Region: Oxygen Float Pilot Study (WP3) Coastal Oxygen Glider Study (WP4) Atmospheric Oxygen Study (WP5) Synthesis, Modelling & Prediction (WP6)

  20. Trends of ocean pCO2 in the North Atlantic Ocean (always near or above atm. CO2  sink is decreasing since 1990 dpCO2/dt (µatm/yr) Schuster et al., 2008, DSRII-SOCOVV Issue, in rev.

  21. Activity 3.2 - example:Elevated CO2/pH changes and Carbon cycling/ecosystem responses

  22. Enhanced biological carbon consumption in a high CO2 ocean • More carbon is taken up per unit nutrient under high CO2 ocean • Different mixing regimes within the bags • Dissociation constant??? Present 2100 2200

  23. Surface ocean pH reduction over this century will exhibit large regional variability Reductions in pH this century will be greatest in the Arctic Larger Change in surface ocean pH in the 21st Century Large Bellerby, et al, 2005.

  24. From Dorothee Bakker Major products: 1) The North Atlantic CO2 Observing network. 2) CARINA data synthesis 3) comparison of Cant calculation methods 4) first evidence of long term variation in North Atlantic and SO CO2 sink. 5) evidence of poorly understood role of sea ice in SO CO2 sink 6) mapping of seasonal and annual North Atlantic CO2 fluxes etc. 7) detailed time history of marine CO2 uptake from 1750 (or 1850) until now, global and regional (basin wide) Christoph In fact, the observational part CarboOcean is extremely successful.
