Global reorganization of deep-sea circulation and carbon storage after the last ice age

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    The radiocarbon content of seawater (14C/C, commonly expressed as a 14C age or as 14C; see the Supplementary Materials for more information) has long been recognized as a "most useful tracer" of ocean circulation and ventilation. This multisubstrate archive allows the authors to provide a comprehensive view of 14C/C in the deep Atlantic, Southern, and Pacific Oceans. The seawater-proxy 14C/C comparison in Fig 1B illustrates the classic global ocean "conveyor belt", where the Atlantic (green) has the highest and the Pacific (brown) has the lowest seawater 14C/C (low 14C . . .
