| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In 2012/2013 we conducted a research cruise in the Antarctic Ocean in order to evaluate absorption of the anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) in the ocean and measured simultaneously dissolved inorganic CO2, dissolved oxygen, chlorofluorocarbons, radiocarbon (14C), 137Cs, and perfluoroalkyl substances. Comparing these data in 2012/2013 to those obtained in the 1990s, it is suggested that formation rate of the Antarctic Bottom Water varied inter-annually. In addition, temporal changes in the chemical tracers could provide more quantitative discussion about the bottom water formation. These results will contribute to further studies on absorption of the anthropogenic CO2 in the Antarctic Ocean.
