Effects of mesoscale eddies on global ocean distributions of CFC-11, CO<sub>2</sub>, and Δ<sup>14</sup>C
Global-scale tracer simulations are typically made at coarse resolution without explicitly modelling eddies. Here we ask what role do eddies play in ocean uptake, storage, and meridional transport of transient tracers. We made global anthropogenic transient-tracer simulations in coarse-resolution (2...
