使用新的干涉技术测量大气分子氧的变化表明，空气中的氧气含量在北半球和南半球都有季节性变化，并且逐年减少。季节变化为估计全球海洋生物有机碳生产速率提供了新的基础，而年际变化限制了对海洋人为二氧化碳吸收速率的估计。
Measurements of changes in atmospheric molecular oxygen using a new interferometric technique show that the O2 content of air varies seasonally in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres and is decreasing from year to year. The seasonal variations provide a new basis for estimating global rates of biological organic carbon production in the ocean, and the interannual decrease constrains estimates of the rate of anthropogenic CO2 uptake by the oceans.
