海洋吸收二氧化碳可以减缓气候变化,但也会导致全球海洋酸化。与海洋酸化有关的海洋碳酸盐系统的变化会扰乱生态系统并阻碍某些生物的钙化。在这里,我们利用浮游有孔虫的钙化反应作为工具来重建20世纪加利福尼亚洋流生态系统中海洋酸化的进程。对海洋沉积物岩心中保存的近2000个有孔虫化石的壳重和面积的测量表明,一种生活在表面的有孔虫物种的钙化减少了20%。使用现代校准,这种响应转化为碳酸盐离子浓度估计降低35%,碳酸盐离子是碳酸盐系统的重要生物化学成分。假设碳酸盐体系的其他方面,这意味着pH值下降了0.21,超过了估计的全球平均下降幅度的两倍以上。我们的代理记录也显示了相当大的变异,与太平洋年代际涛动和上升流强度的年代际尺度变化显著相关,这种关系到目前为止一直被相对较短的观测记录所掩盖。这种调节表明,气候变化将在放大或减轻该地区人为信号和海洋酸化进程方面发挥重要作用。
Oceanic uptake of CO2can mitigate climate change, but also results in global ocean acidification. Ocean acidification-related changes to the marine carbonate system can disturb ecosystems and hinder calcification by some organisms. Here, we use the calcification response of planktonic foraminifera as a tool to reconstruct the progression of ocean acidification in the California Current Ecosystem through the twentieth century. Measurements of nearly 2,000 fossil foraminifera shell weights and areas preserved in a marine sediment core showed a 20% reduction in calcification by a surface-dwelling foraminifera species. Using modern calibrations, this response translates to an estimated 35% reduction in carbonate ion concentration, a biologically important chemical component of the carbonate system. Assuming other aspects of the carbonate system, this represents a 0.21 decline in pH, exceeding the estimated global average decline by more than a factor of two. Our proxy record also shows considerable variability that is significantly correlated with Pacific Decadal Oscillation and decadal-scale changes in upwelling strength, a relationship that until now has been obscured by the relatively short observational record. This modulation suggests that climatic variations will play an important role in amplifying or alleviating the anthropogenic signal and progression of ocean acidification in this region.
