Warming-induced retreat of West Antarctic glaciers weakened carbon sequestration ability but increased mercury enrichment

Abstract The Southern Ocean, one of Earth’s most productive areas, is widely recognized as a major sink for atmospheric carbon and mercury, tightly coupling primary production with the sedimentary sequestration of these elements. The impacts of climate warming on these processes, however, remain unc...
