Figure 12.1 Summary of feedbacks between the ocean's biogeochemical cycles and radiative forcing induced by ocean acidii cation. Shown are the
pathways that ultimately lead to a change in the atmospheric concentration of radiatively active components, namely CO 2 , N 2 O, and DMS. Refer to the text
and Table 12.1 for a detailed discussion. Solid arrows indicate l uxes and/or transformations, while dashed arrows indicate that this quantity has an
inl uence on the l ux/transformation. The dot-dashed horizontal line depicts the boundary between the euphotic and the aphotic zones.
