(This is setting aside oxidation of organic C that has settled to the seafloor; there is a significant amount (about 50 times the marine biota) but the flux is very slow — the total C added to the sea floor each year is about 0.2 Gt, which is a tiny fraction of the 50 Gt cycled through marine biota; even if that were all organic C (I think it is actually mostly inorganic), the rate of oxydation of organic C in the ocean would still have to be almost equal to the rate of organic C production, which is the approximation I used before in calculating the rate of O2 uptake by that process.

If you have good measurements of upper ocean and atmospheric temperatures, then if you had a good decade - long satellite record of the Earth's total radiative energy balance from space — say, if Triana has been launched to in the late 1990s — then you could use conservation of energy to calculate the rate of heat uptake by the deep ocean over the past ten years.

(As this is the result of cummulative emissions (including effects of CO2 uptake by the ocean, etc.), and the emission rate has been increasing, such a ratio might be considered a low - ball estimate of what might be considered a «standard» forcing / combustion ratio.)
The melting water actually results in an increase in heat uptake by the planet, with the increase going directly into the ocean, exacerbating the feedback.

Rather, it is likely that surface warming gradually stabilizes ocean stratification, thus reducing deep - water production at high latitudes, which acts to weaken advective heat uptake by meridional overturning circulation [cf. Meehl et al., 2011; 2013].»
The effects of eutrophication on carbonate chemistry can exceed that of OA from anthropogenic CO2 by either increasing pH, when enhanced CO2 uptake by primary producers prevails (Borges and Gypens 2010), or by decreasing pH, where enhanced respiratory CO2 release prevails (Cai et al. 2011), a condition often associated with coastal hypoxia (Feely et al. 2010).
This allows us to find out something interesting about the natural carbon cycle: The mass balance equation can be rearranged to give an estimate of the difference between annual emissions from all natural sources and annual natural uptake by all natural sinks.
The biggest flows out of the atmosphere are photosynthesis on land and CO2 uptake by cold ocean water.
Shifts in the structure of ocean ecosystems can influence the rate of CO2 uptake by the ocean (Bopp et al., 2005).
It is well established that the level of atmospheric CO2, which directly influences the Earth's temperature, depends critically on the rates of carbon uptake by the ocean and the land, which are also dependent on climate.
The carbon uptake by the ocean and land is another proof that they are not acting as long - term sources.

Will a complex of feedbacks lead to a jump in erosion rates, leading to much larger nutrient levels in freshwater and some areas of the ocean, to the point of releasing more CO2 and CH4 while blocking CO2 uptake by the ocean?
These parameters regulate processes such as plant carbon uptake by photosynthesis and how precipitation is separated into evapotranspiration to the atmosphere and river runoff.

Even if you assume a low value for the variables of SO2 cooling and the rate of heat uptake by the deep ocean.
Complete restoration of deforested areas is unrealistic, yet 100 GtC carbon drawdown is conceivable because: (1) the human - enhanced atmospheric CO2 level increases carbon uptake by some vegetation and soils, (2) improved agricultural practices can convert agriculture from a CO2 ource into a CO2 sink [174], (3) biomass - burning power plants with CO2 capture and storage can contribute to CO2 drawdown.
Climate science has been thrown into disarray by the hiatus, disagreement between climate model and instrumental estimates of climate sensitivity, uncertainties in carbon uptake by plants, and diverging interpretations of ocean heating (in the face of a dearth of observations).
When the turnover slows down, the usual heat uptake by the ocean resumes, which is only a bit less.
And Nic and Lewis just said: «Heat uptake by other components of the climate system is ignored»
If fact it's probably a better idea to think of La Nina simply being more efficient heat uptake by the ocean, and El Nino being less efficient heat uptake, with a consequence of less or more heat being available to transfer to the atmosphere, than to think of El Nino as warming and La Nina as cooling.
As a result, the new model found that the increase in carbon uptake by more vegetation will be overshadowed by a much larger amount of carbon released into the atmosphere.
Since the opposite is true the explanation that this is primarily due to uptake by plants with the lowest level of CO2 corresponding to the end of the growing season is likely the most reasonable explanation for the cyclic variation in CO2 concentration.
