Fig. 1 Schematic of human impacts on ocean biogeochemistry either directly via fluxes of material into the ocean (colored arrows) or indirectly via climate change and altered ocean circulation (black arrows). S C Doney Science 2010;328:1512-1516 Published by AAAS
Westerly winds above the ACC push cold Fresh surface waters away to the north and draw up warmer, saltier water that is low in O2 and nutrients. The bands of westerly winds separate the warm air in the tropics from the cold air over the poles. The thermal gradient drives the winds. Stratospheric ozone influences the temperature gradient Toggweiler and Russell (2008) Nature 451, 286
Fig. 2 Time series of (top) atmospheric CO2 and surface ocean pCO2 and (bottom) surface ocean pH at the atmospheric Mauna Loa Observatory (MLO) on the island of Hawai‘i and Station ALOHA in the subtropical North Pacific north of Hawai‘i, 1988–2008.

Fig. 3 Model estimated deposition fluxes of anthropogenic reactive nitrogen (mol N m−2 year−1) to the ocean surface for oxidized forms (NOy), primarily from fossil fuel combustion sources, and reduced forms (NHx) primarily from agricultural sources.

Fig. 4 Decadal change in subsurface O2 from 1994 to 2004 along 30°N in the North Pacific with positive values indicating an increase in apparent oxygen utilization (AOU) and a decline in O2 (μmol kg−1); contour plot is overlaid by mixed-layer depths (green line) and potential density surfaces (pink) (48).
