报告内容简介：
Atmospheric CO2 plays a critical role in the climate system, and we must have a sound understanding of carbon cycle to faithfully predict future climate in face of ongoing anthropogenic atmospheric CO2. Lessons from past atmospheric CO2 changes, especially those occurred on millennial and centennial timescales, would be valuable to enhance our prediction capabilities. Various mechanisms have been proposed to explain past atmospheric CO2 changes, but they are yet unable to fully explain different types of CO2 rises during the last deglacial, highlighting knowledge gaps in our understanding of carbon cycle. Here, we use a new approach and exceptionally high resolution marine records to carry out a detailed investigation into processes controlling atmospheric CO2 surrounding Younger dryas, a critical time period when both millennial and centennial timescales CO2 rises occurred. We find that ocean circulation, via affecting carbon sequestration efficiencies and volume occupations in the ocean interior of major water masses, critically shaped the atmospheric CO2 evolution around Younger Dryas.
