Description:
Marine macrophyte biomass production, burial, oxidation, calcium carbonate dissolution, and metabolically accelerated diffusion of carbon dioxide across the air-sea interface may combine to sequester at least 10(9) tons of carbon per year in the ocean. This carbon sink may partially account for discrepancies in extant global carbon budgets.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Smith, S V -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1981 Feb 20;211(4484):838-40.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17740399" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
