 Seasonal variation of CO2 saturation in the Gulf of Bothnia: Indications of marine net heterotrophy
Surface water was supersaturated with CO on an annual basis, indicating net heterotrophy and a source of CO to the atmosphere.
However, the Gulf of Bothnia oscillated between being a sink and a source of CO over the studied period, largely decided by temporal variation in bacterial respiration (BR) and primary production (PP) in the water column above the pycnocline.
The calculated annual respiration-production balance (BR-PP) was very similar to the estimated CO emission from the Gulf of Bothnia, which indicates that these processes were major determinants of the exchange of CO between water and atmosphere.
