If one looks at the ocean / water temperatures http://weather.unisys.com/surface/sst.html there are enormous differences between the tropics, temperate and north, and enormous seasonal variations during the year which will affect CO2 absorption and emission, and there is a lot of biological activity in seas and waters that also are involved.

No matter if the seasonal or continuous sum of sources was 50 or 100 or 1,000 GtC within a year, or changed from 100 GtC in one year to 200 GtC next year... the difference with the sinks within the same year was always negative and between -0.5 and -5.5 GtC...

The fluctuations in the CO2 curve (top) reflect seasonal changes in photosynthetic activity, which cause small differences between summer and winter concentrations of CO2.

The phase difference plot between foF2 and PI (left plot) indicates the following regularities: (i) high - latitude foF2 9 - d oscillations are out of phase with those in PI; (ii) there is a clear seasonal dependence of the negative high - latitude foF2 9 - d wave response and this can be traced out by the zero phase difference line; it approaches high latitudes (± 60 °) in winter and moves toward the equator (near ± 30 °) in summer, and (iii) middle - and low - latitude foF2 9 - d waves usually lag behind that in PI; the mean time delay is ~ 1.5 — 2 days (~ 60 — 90 °).

The correct way to caclulate the actual forcing from a given albedo model would be to take the difference between the model with unchanged insolation and that with changed insolation, rather than treating it all as being a consequence of the drift in seasonal insolation.
