Extended Data Fig. 3: Sequestration fluxes of biogenic carbon in CONVERSE 1-3.
From: Century-scale carbon sequestration flux throughout the ocean by the biological pump
Geographic distributions of (a–d) carbon pump Fseq, (e) Fseq into the sediment, and Fseq calculated at zseq of (f) 1000 m and (g) 2000 m (assuming entire sequestration of the POC flux below zseq). The latter two are the total sequestration fluxes estimated in many studies. Ocean areas shallower than 100 m are without colour. The seasonal migrant pump is not illustrated because our results concern the sole northern North Atlantic. Corresponding results are in Extended Data Tables 3 and 5.
