This association is generally attributed to changes in the partitioning of carbon between organic and carbonate carbon sinks caused by sea-level rise and consequent transgression. No single figure can be given for the duration of the influence of carbon in the atmosphere due to uncertainty regarding the uptake rates of the various carbon sinks. Thirdly, there is the question of so-called "carbon sinks". From the Hansard archive Example from the Hansard archive. Contains Parliamentary information licensed under the Open Parliament Licence v3.0 There is no doubt that the world's oceans act as carbon sinks, but cannot keep pace with the growth in emissions.
