It is also possible for cold climates to increase chemical weathering in some ways, by lowering sea level to expose more land to erosion (though I'd guess this can also increase oxydation of C in sediments) and by supplying more sediments via glacial erosion for chemical weathering (of course, those sediments must make it to warmer conditions to make the process effective — downhill and downstream, or perhaps via pulsed ice ages -LRB-?)-RRB-.

Alternatively, if a deepening of the subtropical gyres gives rise to an increase in the heat stored in this water mass, with a corresponding non-zero trend in the surface heat flux; then I should think that a restoration towards conditions of the past must somehow give rise to a delayed warming of the atmosphere (if the surplus is not somehow lost to space).
