| justification | Highlighted as a key process-based uncertainty in the marine carbon cycle (https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2023EF004375), that is largely uncharacterised within CMIP6 (https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2204369119), with potentially significant impact on ocean carbon sink over centennial timescales particularly w.r.t. net zero/net negative emissions (10.21203/rs.3.rs-3921898/v1) |
