Sentences with phrase «by ocean outgassing»

If there's an excess coming into atmosphere not accounted for by ocean outgassing, or known land / biosphere emissions, or fossil fuels, or boosted northern forest growth (and decay), or permafrost melt, then it's necessary to look for it.

Not exact matches

By breaking up petroleum into smaller droplets that dissolved faster in the deep ocean, the dispersants decreased the amounts of volatile toxic compounds that rose to the surface and outgassed into the air.

More important, my analysis earlier strongly suggests that the outgassing is caused by ocean temparature only, and not by land temperature.

Then posters like Mr. Benson in # 7 blithly exclaim, «Just so nobody is mislead by your maunderings, NOAA measures the uptake / outgassing of the oceans».

kim (1)-- Just so nobody is mislead by your maunderings, NOAA measures the uptake / outgassing of the oceans.

The observed CO2 increase in the world ocean disproves another popular #fakenews piece of the «climate skeptics»: namely that the CO2 increase in the atmosphere might have been caused by the outgassing of CO2 from the ocean as a result of the warming.

I read online within the past two weeks that Russian scientists were up in the northern oceans somewhere and they saw tons of hot spots of methane bubbling out from the ocean surface.I think it was in ScienceDaily.The question posed by these scientists was «is this outgassing a normal melting of methane that has been going on for many thousands of years, or, is it an upward tick of significance?»

As the rate of net CO2 outgassing from the ocean then is affected by reduced solubility, this offers a simple physical explanation of the observed time lag.

Iff we were to cut CO2 emissions in half tomorrow would we still go past 580ppm by 2100 due to possible outgassing of the ocean?

On longer term, this effect is countered by the increase of CO2 in the atmosphere: more CO2 in the atmosphere means a higher pCO2, thus a smaller difference in pCO2 over the warm oceans, thus reducing the outgassing of CO2.

CO2 then also feeds back via ocean absorption / outgassing regulated by SST's.

Assuming that about 98 % has absorbed by the oceans (153ppmv) and assuming that the oceans have released about 120ppmv since 1850 due to warming, then PCO2 (aq) would have still increased, because proportionately more CO2 has been absorbed by the oceans than has been outgassed.

Climate sensitivity is the doubling of temperature from a rise in CO2 that is being outgassed by the oceans as a result of the rising temperature (and that are in fact absorbing, not emitting CO2).

I say CO2 simply follows ocean outgassing / absorption as it warms and cools and temperatures are bounded by planetary albedo i.e. how much land can potentially be locked under high albedo glaciers or alternatively how much can be exposed to present a lower albedo.

CO2 was being increased by heating of the oceans and outgassing of CO2 from them, not the other way around.

In other words, first temperature rises, and then CO2 rises, not the other way round; possibly caused by CO2 outgassing from warming oceans.

It DOES N'T take any net CO2 outgassing from the oceans in the case that the atmospheric CO2 growth is caused to a significant degree by warming climatic factors — there's MORE than enough human input to achieve the equilibrium between ocean and atmosphere.

A small correction is made for differential outgassing of O2 and N2 with the increased temperature of the ocean as estimated by Levitus et al. (2000).

CO2 changes by about 10 - 15 ppm per degree C from outgassing, as we see since the last Ice Age, and it is largely the ocean chemistry that explains this magnitude.

I accept that most of the rise from 280 to 400 ppm is caused by human CO2 emissions with the possibility that some of it is due to outgassing from warming of the oceans.

The emissions and their partitioning only include the fluxes that have changed since 1750, and not the natural CO2 fluxes (e.g., atmospheric CO2 uptake from weathering, outgassing of CO2 from lakes and rivers, and outgassing of CO2 by the ocean from carbon delivered by rivers) between the atmosphere, land and ocean reservoirs that existed before that time and still exist today.

The total temperature increase 1959 - 2004 was 0.6 °C, thus only 1.8 ppmv is caused by more ocean outgassing, the rest is from anthro emissions...

Strong AGW supporters on the other hand argue that while the sun may have caused the initial temperature spike and outgassing of CO2 from the oceans, further temperature increases were caused by the increases in CO2.

The time - lag between changes in temperature and consequent changes in CO2 concentration are caused by outgassing of CO2 from the oceans when they warm and uptake by the oceans as they cool.
