"... with overall emissions growing rapidly, the proportion of fossil-
fuel emissions absorbed by the oceans since 2000 may have declined by
as much as 10%."
"Some climate models have already predicted such a slowdown in the
oceans' ability to soak up excess carbon from the atmosphere, but
this is the first time scientists have actually measured it."
"... the new study suggests the slowdown is due to natural chemical
and physical limits on the oceans' ability to absorb carbon ...".
