Influence of air-sea CO2 disequilibrium on biological carbon pump sequestration inventories and timescales

This dataset provides output from carbon sequestration calculations presented in the following paper: Nowicki, M., DeVries, T., &amp; Siegel, D. A. (2024). The influence of air-sea CO2 disequilibrium on carbon sequestration by the ocean's biological carbon pump. <i>Global Biogeochemical Cycles</i>.The dataset provides dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) concentrations computed using the full nonlinear and linearized models under both instantaneous and realistic gas exchange scenarios, as described in the above referenced paper. The average sequestration times under both gas exchange scenarios are also included, as well as the air-sea CO2 equilibration timescale and biological DIC flux (referred to as Jbio in the paper) vectors used in all of these computations. The dataset also provides the fraction of biogenic DIC sequestered for 0-1000 years under both gas exchange scenarios, referred to as f(x,t) in Equation 9 and used to create Figure 5 in the above referenced paper. This dataset only includes years 0-1000 of the 7000 year simulation shown in Figure 5. Longer simulations can be obtained by contacting the author. Also included is a MATLAB script with examples for creating some of the figures. The script loads in the dataset and extracts the relevant variables for computing the DIC inventories shown in Table 2, as well as for creating Figures 1-5. If using this dataset, please cite the original publication of Nowicki et al. (2024).
