An Analytical Framework for the Steady State Impact of Carbonate Compensation on Atmospheric CO[subscript 2]

The deep-ocean carbonate ion concentration impacts the fraction of the marine calcium carbonate production that is buried in sediments. This gives rise to the carbonate compensation feedback, which is thought to restore the deep-ocean carbonate ion concentration on multimillennial timescales. We fo...
