Abstract. Biogeochemical cycles in coastal ecosystem is influencing the water quality and it is further affect on productivity and sustainability of coastal waters. Carbondioxide is one of the important parameter in biogeochemical cycles in coastal waters, it is formed as DIC (Dissolved Inorganic Carbon) in water and TOC (Total Organic Carbon) in sediment. The purpose of this research was to determine the distribution concentration of dissolved CO2 in the southern coastal waters of Natuna Islands. Insitu measurement was conducted for some parameters of water qualities both physical (i.e. temperature and turbidity) and chemical (i.e. DO, pH and salinity) parameters. DIC was analyzed in LIPI laboratory using Giggenbach titration method, while TOC in sediment was analyzed in Proling Laboratory, Institut Pertanian Bogor. The water quality of the southern coastal waters of Natuna Islands generally in a good condition according to the Ministry of Environment Decree, Number 51, year 2004. The results showed that spacial distribution of DIC ranged from 1.9 to  2.3 mol/kg, while TOC content of the water was ranged from 0.25 g/kg to 1.19 g/kg. Sediment distributions were dominated by sandy, silty sand, sandy silt and coral reefs, therefore the sediment has potencial as organic carbon storage and indicates a good productivity.Keywords: Carbondioxide; Dissolved Inorganic Carbon; Total Organic Carbon; Natuna Islands Abstrak.  Siklus biogeokimia yang terjadi pada ekosistem pesisir dapat mempengaruhi kualitas perairan dan berfungsi sebagai penunjang keberlanjutan dan kesuburan perairan. Karbondioksida adalah salah satu parameter penting dalam siklus biogeokimia di perairan pesisir baik berupa DIC (Dissolved Inorganic Carbon) di dalam air maupun berupa TOC (Total Organic Carbon) di dalam sedimen. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui sebaran kandungan CO2 terlarut di perairan pesisir selatan Kepulauan Natuna. Pengukuran insitu dilakukan terhadap beberapa parameter kualitas air baik fisika (temperatur dan kecerahan) maupun kimia (DO, pH dan salinitas). Metode titrasi Giggenbach digunakan untuk analisis DIC di laboratorium LIPI, sedangkan TOC dalam sedimen dianalisis di laboratorium Proling, IPB. Kualitias air di perairan pesisir selatan Kepulauan Natuna secara umum masih berada dalam kondisi baik berdasarkan Keputusan Menteri Negara Lingkungan Hidup No. 51 tahun 2004. Hasil penelitian menunjukan sebaran spasial parameter kandungan CO2 dengan kandungan DIC berkisar antara 1,9-2,3 mol/kg, sedangkan kandungan TOC perairan berkisar antara 0,25-1,19 g/kg. Sebaran sedimen didominasi oleh pasir, pasir lanau, lanau pasiran dan terumbu karang yang berpotensi besar menyimpan karbon organik didalam sedimennya dan mengindikasikan kesuburan perairan pesisir selatan Kepulauan Natuna tergolong baik.

Abstract. Numerous studies have dealt with carbon (C) contents in Histosols, but there are no studies quantifying the relative importance of the individual C components in pore waters. For this study, measurements were taken of all the carbon components (particulate organic carbon, POC; dissolved organic carbon, DOC; dissolved inorganic carbon, DIC; dissolved methane, CH4) in the soil pore water of calcareous fens under three different water management regimes (re-wetted, deeply and moderately drained). Pore water was collected weekly or biweekly (April 2004 to April 2006) at depths between 10 and 150 cm. The main results obtained were: (1) DIC (94–280 mg C l−1) was the main C-component. (2) POC and DOC concentrations in the pore water (14–125 mg C l−1 vs. 41–95 mg C l−1) were pari passu. (3) Dissolved CH4 was the smallest C component (0.005–0.9 mg C l−1). Interestingly, about 30% of the POM particles were colonized by microbes indicating that they are active in the internal C turnover. Certainly, both POC and DOC fractions are essential components of the C budget of peatlands. Furthermore, dissolved CO2 in all forms of DIC appears to be an important part of peatland C-balance.

A simple, rapid method for determining dissolved inorganic carbon in water is described. A 20-cm3 sample of water is drawn into a 50-cm3 polypropylene syringe and acidified by injection of 1 cm3 of dilute sulphuric acid. Twenty-nine cubic centimeters of helium at atmospheric pressure is injected into the syringe followed by 10 sec of manual agitation to partition CO2 between gas and liquid phase. The gas phase containing 60% of CO2 from the sample is then analyzed by gas chromatography. This method has been used to determine dissolved inorganic and organic carbon in Canadian Shield waters and to determine total carbonates in sediments.

We have measured the radiocarbon contents of individual, solvent-extractable, short-chain (C14, C16, and C18) fatty acids isolated from Ross Sea surface sediments. The corresponding 14C ages are equivalent to that of the post-bomb dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) reservoir. Moreover, molecular 14C variations in surficial (upper 15 cm) sediments indicate that these compounds may prove useful for reconstructing chronologies of Antarctic margin sediments containing uncertain (and potentially variable) quantities of relict organic carbon. A preliminary molecular 14C chronology suggests that the accumulation rate of relict organic matter has not changed during the last 500 14C yr. The focus of this study is to determine the validity of compound-specific 14C analysis as a technique for reconstructing chronologies of Antarctic margin sediments.

Abstract. A new, low-order Earth System Model is described, calibrated and tested against Earth system data. The model features modules for the atmosphere, ocean, ocean sediment, land biosphere and lithosphere and has been designed to simulate global change on time scales of years to millions of years. The atmosphere module considers radiation balance, meridional transport of heat and water vapor between low-mid latitude and high latitude zones, heat and gas exchange with the ocean and sea ice and snow cover. Gases considered are carbon dioxide and methane for all three carbon isotopes, nitrous oxide and oxygen. The ocean module has 100 m vertical resolution, carbonate chemistry and prescribed circulation and mixing. Ocean biogeochemical tracers are phosphate, dissolved oxygen, dissolved inorganic carbon for all three carbon isotopes and alkalinity. Biogenic production of particulate organic matter in the ocean surface layer depends on phosphate availability but with lower efficiency in the high latitude zone, as determined by model fit to ocean data. The calcite to organic carbon rain ratio depends on surface layer temperature. The semi-analytical, ocean sediment module considers calcium carbonate dissolution and oxic and anoxic organic matter remineralisation. The sediment is composed of calcite, non-calcite mineral and reactive organic matter. Sediment porosity profiles are related to sediment composition and a bioturbated layer of 0.1 m thickness is assumed. A sediment segment is ascribed to each ocean layer and segment area stems from observed ocean depth distributions. Sediment burial is calculated from sedimentation velocities at the base of the bioturbated layer. Bioturbation rates and oxic and anoxic remineralisation rates depend on organic carbon rain rates and dissolved oxygen concentrations. The land biosphere module considers leaves, wood, litter and soil. Net primary production depends on atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration and remineralization rates in the litter and soil are related to mean atmospheric temperatures. Methane production is a small fraction of the soil remineralization. The lithosphere module considers outgassing, weathering of carbonate and silicate rocks and weathering of rocks containing old organic carbon and phosphorus. Weathering rates are related to mean atmospheric temperatures. A pre-industrial, steady state calibration to Earth system data is carried out. Ocean observations of temperature, carbon 14, phosphate, dissolved oxygen, dissolved inorganic carbon and alkalinity constrain air-sea exchange and ocean circulation, mixing and biogeochemical parameters. Observed calcite and organic carbon distributions and inventories in the ocean sediment help constrain sediment module parameters. Carbon isotopic data and carbonate vs. silicate weathering fractions are used to estimate initial lithosphere outgassing and rock weathering rates. Model performance is tested by simulating atmospheric greenhouse gas increases, global warming and model tracer evolution for the period 1765 to 2000, as forced by prescribed anthropogenic greenhouse gas inputs and other anthropogenic and natural forcing. Long term, transient model behavior is studied with a set of 100 000 year simulations, forced by a slow, 5000 Gt C input of CO2 to the atmosphere, and with a 1.5 million year simulation, forced by a doubling of lithosphere CO2 outgassing.
