2 1. How well can global models simulate low-oxygen regions? Stratospheric N2O Sink Fixed UVic Model (Weaver et al. 2001) 2D Energy-Moisture Balance Atmosphere (fixed winds) O2 N2O CO2 CO2 CO2 N2O Winds Fixed Dyn. Thermod. Sea Ice Fixed 3D Ocean (1.8x3.6 deg, 19 levels) 2N2PZD Ocean Ecosystem / Biogeochemistry Model (Schmittner et al GBC) O O2 O2 Plankton DIC PO4 NO3 DIC PO4 NO3 Soil Terrestrial Vegetation / Carbon Cycle (Meissner et al Clim.

4 1. How well can global models simulate low-oxygen regions? Schmittner et al. (2007) Paleoceanography
5 How well can global models simulate low-oxygen regions? Large scale oxygen distribution can be modeled well Low-oxygen regions not so well. Typically suboxic volume overestimated. Issues: physics (resolution, mixing parameterizations), biology (zooplankton vertical migration,...)
6 2. Long-Term Projections Global Warming until year 4000 Business-as-usual based on burning of all readily available fossil fuel reserves (SRES A2, linear decrease from ) Schmittner et al. (2008) GBC 2. Long-term projections 9ºC Warming Control Sea Ice Disappears Sea Level Rises (only thermal expansion)
7 2. Long-term projections Impacts on Ocean Circulation and dproductivity it NPP doubles New Production Export Production Schmittner et al. (2008) GBC
8 Impact on O and N Cycles 2. Long-term projections Oxygen decreases Suboxic water volume increases Denitrification increases by 350% Nitrogen fixation increases Decrease in NO3 inventory small N2O production increases by 64% (estimated from empirical relation by Nevison et al., 2003) => atmospheric N2O increases by 60 ppb (21%) => additional warming by 0.2ºC Schmittner et al. (2008) GBC

Long-Term Projections Dissolved Oxygen is projected to decrease world-wide due to decreased solubility increased stratification / slower circulation Low-oxygen regions will expand, perhaps dramatically increased denitrification increased N2O production (very small positive climate feedback) positive climate feedback) Biological effects of acidification may
