Extended Data Fig. 3: Estimation of the model drift.

Timeseries from our control simulation (constant climate and atmospheric CO2 concentration) for A ocean CO2 uptake [TgC yr−1], B partial pressure of CO2 in the surface ocean [μatm yr−1], C Revelle factor [yr−1], D export flux at 100 m [TgC yr−1], and C DICREMIN [PgC yr−1]. The model drift is extremely small compare to climate change and evidence a quasi-equilibrium for surface (CO2 flux, \({p}_{\rm{CO}_2}\) and Revelle factor), intermediate (export flux at 100 m) and deep ocean variables (DICREMIN).
