The ocean would continue to soak up more and more carbon dioxide until global warming heated the ocean enough to slow down ocean circulation. Water trapped at the surface would become saturated, at which point, the ocean would slow its carbon uptake. To oceanographers of 30 years ago, the question was less, how will human emissions change the ocean carbon cycle, and more, is the ocean carbon cycle changing yet?</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Study/OceanCarbon/"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/earthobservatory.nasa.gov/img/A9E2BC27-6A87-4828-9A8D-47722395C4CA" alt="Map of carbon sampling cruise tracks." /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Study/OceanCarbon/"><P class="rt_caption_image">Crew members aboard the <SPAN class="ship">R/V Roger Revelle</SPAN> retrieve a <SPAN class="jargon"><A href="http://www.coexploration.org/bbsr/classroombats/tour/html/ctd.html">CTD rosette</A></SPAN> from the frigid waters of the Southern Ocean.
