“…Springer et al, 1996;Niebauer et al, 1999), it might have had a different influence on past oceanatmosphere CO 2 exchange. Paleoceanographic reconstructions in the Bering Sea also revealed reduced export production during the last glacial period, which increased during Termination I and remained high in the Holocene (Gorbarenko, 1996;Cook et al, 2005;Gorbarenko et al, 2005;Okada et al, 2005;Okazaki et al, 2005;Brunelle et al, 2007Brunelle et al, , 2010Itaki et al, 2009;Khim et al, 2010;Kim et al, 2011). This variability was explained by a complex interplay of changes in sea surface temperatures (SST), sea-ice coverage, inflow of Pacific surface waters, and upper-ocean stratification (e.g.…”
