This storage was caused either by Atlantic stratification or iron fertilization. In either case, these downward ‘bumps’ were temporary. Once the forcing was removed the CO2 was returned to the atmosphere. These ‘bumps’ modulate a downward ‘ramp’ in atmospheric CO2 content. My tentative conclusion is that they are the result of CO2 input starvation rather than ocean storage This talk is part of the Cambridge Centre for Climate Science series.
