Deep convection in the glacial Pacific can hinder oceanic carbon sequestration: An ocean-biogeochemical model study

Puntos clave

• Deep convection significantly hinders oceanic carbon sequestration, impacting global carbon cycling.
• An ocean-biogeochemical model reveals a complex interaction affecting carbon levels in seawater.
• The observational analysis demonstrates changes in the slushy water layer influencing carbon dynamics.
• Findings highlight the need for further studies to evaluate how glacial processes impact climate change.
