Not exact matches
When they factored in a constant level of
CO2, they discovered a surprising development: The change required a
lower overall atmospheric
pressure — about one - sixth today's
pressure at sea level.
Low atmospheric
CO2 levels during the Permo - Carboniferous......
at a time when total atmospheric
pressure was similar or slight higher than now.
Because
CO2 is less concentrated and
at much
lower pressure in smokestack gases than it is in syngas, it won't spontaneously dissolve into a liquid solvent.
The air
at the S Pole is not depleted in O2 or
CO2 it's just
at a
lower pressure, hence a
lower partial
pressure.
I must confess I'm completely ignorant of the volumetric behavior of sea water
at low temperatures, all my work with
CO2 and sea water, and / or brine has been done
at much higher temperature and
pressure.
CO2 can be liquified
at any temperature of 303K (30 deg C) or
lower by applying enough
pressure.
Therefore, by computing (or measuring) the absorption
at sea level
pressure, we are overestimating the absorption of the
CO2 actually in place in the higher,
lower -
pressure parts of the atmosphere.
