Carbon-cycle imbalances in the Sargasso Sea

The net exchange of carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and the ocean, and thus the nature of the oceanic carbon sink, is dominated by the seasonal dynamics of carbon cycling in the upper ocean. Measurements of these processes made over five years in the Sargasso Sea off Bermuda are presented.
