Role of mode and intermediate waters in future ocean acidification: analysis of CMIP5 models
Posted on EPOCA: 02 Apr 2013 — Resplandy L., Bopp L., Orr J. C. & Dunne J. P., in press. Geophysical Research Letters Consistently with the past decades observations, CMIP5 Earth System Models project highest acidification rates in subsurface waters. Using 7 ESMs, we find that high acidification rates in
