A benthic δC‐based proxy for atmospheric pCO2 over the last 1.5 Myr
[1] A high‐resolution marine proxy for atmospheric pCO2 is needed to clarify the phase lag between pCO2 and marine climate proxies and to provide a record of orbital‐scale pCO2 variations before the oldest ice core measurement at 800 ka. Benthic dC data should record deep ocean carbon storage and, thus, atmospheric pCO2. This study finds that a modified dC gradient between the deep Pacific and ...
متن کاملA mathematical model of rat collecting duct. II. Effect of buffer delivery on urinary acidification.
A mathematical model of the rat collecting duct (CD) is used to examine the effect of delivered load of bicarbonate and nonbicarbonate buffer on urinary acidification. Increasing the delivered load of HCO(3)(-) produces bicarbonaturia, and, with luminal carbonic anhydrase absent, induces a disequilibrium luminal pH and a postequilibration increase in urinary PCO2. At baseline flows, this disequ...
متن کاملEpisodic release of CO2 from the high-latitude North Atlantic Ocean during the last 135 kyr
Antarctic ice cores document glacial-interglacial and millennial-scale variability in atmospheric pCO2 over the past 800 kyr. The ocean, as the largest active carbon reservoir on this timescale, is thought to have played a dominant role in these pCO2 fluctuations, but it remains unclear how and where in the ocean CO2 was stored during glaciations and released during (de)glacial millennial-scale...
متن کاملAlveolar PCO2 oscillations and ventilation at sea level and at high altitude.
This study examines the potential for a ventilatory drive, independent of mean PCO2, but depending instead on changes in PCO2 that occur during the respiratory cycle. This responsiveness is referred to here as "dynamic ventilatory sensitivity." The normal, spontaneous, respiratory oscillations in alveolar PCO2 have been modified with inspiratory pulses approximating alveolar PCO2 concentrations...
متن کاملThe Effect of the Type of Hemodialysis Buffer on the QTc Interval in Patients on Chronic Hemodialysis
Background: Identifying the sources of variation in QTc measurements is important for preventing arrhythmias during and after hemodialysis. The present study was designed to determine the correlation between the type of hemodialysis buffer and the changes in QTc interval in patients on chronic hemodialysis. Methods: Fifty-nine patients on chronic hemodialysis who referred in winter 2007 to hemo...
