“…Understanding and accounting for the feedbacks between these reservoirs in response to CDR is particularly important for understanding the efficacy of any method (Keller et al, 2014). For example, when CO 2 is removed from the atmosphere in simulations, the rate of oceanic CO 2 uptake, which has historically increased in response to increasing emissions, is reduced and might eventually reverse (i.e., net outgassing) because of a reduction in the air-sea flux disequilibrium (Cao and Caldeira, 2010;Jones et al, 2016a;Tokarska and Zickfeld, 2015;Vichi et al, 2013). Equally, the terrestrial carbon sink also weakens in response to atmospheric CO 2 removal and can also become a source of CO 2 to the atmosphere (Cao and Caldeira, 2010;Jones et al, 2016a;Tokarska and Zickfeld, 2015).…”
