I can't see how reference links are edited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:3398:B890:5C4F:CE4A:F888:4632 (talk) 23:08, 9 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Documentation for amount of carbon in oceans[edit]

The into states: "The oceans contain around 36,000 gigatons of carbon." What is the documentation for this assessment? When was this measurement done? Has it changed since then? etc.

Peer review edits[edit]

Good topic that I wish I had time to contribute more to. I think it could be most improved by a strong opening paragraph that ties it to a unifying narrative throughout the article. It looks like you have a lot of outline and draft still in development, so I can't wait to see how it turns out. Interesting stuff! Mosesm21 (talk) 01:14, 20 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Carbon-14[edit]

It occurred to me while reading Carbon-14, related to atmospheric nuclear testing, that the decay rate of C14 in the atmosphere is related to the rate of exchange between atmosphere and ocean. I suspect that this isn't the best place to mention it, but it seemed better than the C14 article. If there is a better place, I will post there. Gah4 (talk) 01:15, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
