| Description | Biological carbon pump as described by Broecker, 1982. There is a continous exchange of carbondioxide between surface water and atmosphere. Organic material is produced from primary production in the light-flooded surface water. Remains of organic material is remineralized and transfered back to surface water e.g. by upwelling. Other remains become part of the sedimentation to the ocean floor, where it is buried in the sediment and thus removed from the carbon cycle. The thermocline is the boundary between surface water and the lower water masses. |
