§  Establish baseline for pH, pCO2, carbon flux rate and carbonate mineral saturation state ΩCaCO3-min =([Ca2+][CO3

2-]) / ksp-min

§  Compare chemical data (pH and saturation state) to previous work (very sparse prior to 2000’s; Yamamoto-Kawai et al., 2009 documented low Ωaragonite values during 2007 sea ice minimum)

§  Explore mechanisms for change in pH, saturation state

§  Provide basis for mechanistic predictive capability

§  Equilbration with atmospheric CO2

§  Warming/cooling §  Reduction of ice cover

- Dissolution additional of CO2 §  River run-off or direct

snow/rainfall §  Multi-year Ice melt-

§  Dilution of alkalinity

•  Previously 19,000 carbon records/ stations above the Arctic Circle

•  In the last 3 yrs HLY ECS cruises provided over 31,000 more surface records in Canada and Makarov Basins

•  + 25 vertical casts

•  Over 20% of Canadian Basin is undersaturated wrt aragonite •  Saturation state is largely due to ice melt (with biological activity and overprint of pCO2)

•  2012 data show migration northward of the changes in carbonate chemistry •  Data can be used to refine global models of ocean acidification and timing when surface

water will become undersaturated

Giles et al., Nature Geoscience, 2012

Factors contributing to carbonate undersaturation (low Ω):

•  Addition of CO2(g) to atmosphere (anthropogenic CO2), and air-sea equilibrium •  Addition of CO2(aq) to solution (remineralization of organic matter) •  Low temperature (colder water absorbs more CO2)

•  Mixing with freshwater (which has lower alkalinity, DIC) but … there are two sources of freshwater: sea-ice melt, and terrestrial runoff, both with differing degrees of effect on Ω

Red= intensified by global warming and sea-ice melt Blue = diminished by global warming and sea-ice melt

H216O: where 16O is ~99.8% of all oxygen on Earth

H218O: where 18O is ~0.2% of all oxygen on Earth

Natural abundance of the two isotopologues is expressed as a delta value, which describes small deviation in the ratio of 18O/16O from a standard:
