Effects of Deep Circulation on CaCO<sub>3</sub> Dissolution and Accumulation in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Deep oceanic circulation regulates seafloor calcium carbonate (CaCO3) accumulation by transporting atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) to depth and then transferring it, with respired CO2, along the global ocean conveyor belt. This creates the shallowing trend of CaCO3 preservation from the Atlantic to the Pacific Oceans. The thermohaline flow can be, however, complex on a basin‐wide scale; here, we use a state‐of‐the‐art data compilation and a carbonate accumulation/dissolution model to explain the CaCO3 distribution within the basins of the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean. Our results demonstrate that different currents foster systematically dissimilar CaCO3 preservation within these connected ocean basins. The more undersaturated, faster moving, northward‐flowing Antarctic bottom water readily dissolves more CaCO3 than the southward‐flowing North Atlantic deep water. We are able to predict quantitatively these observations, based on benthic carbonate chemistry and mass‐transfer rates. Our model and CaCO3 records in such basins have the potential to provide new understanding about deep‐ocean circulation of the past.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
