Response of ocean acidification to a gradual increase and decrease of atmospheric CO2

We perform coupled climate–carbon cycle model simulations to examine changes in ocean acidity in response to idealized change of atmospheric CO _2 . Atmospheric CO _2 increases at a rate of 1% per year to four times its pre-industrial level of 280 ppm and then decreases at the same rate to the pre-i...
