Abstract
Several sets of water column and sediment data from the Washington coastal zone reveal that man has not detectably increased fluxes of planktonic C to continental slow sediments in recent decades by either increasing nutrient fertilization of the waters or by overharvesting higher tropic level organisms. Washington slope sediments are not as important depocenters for storage of anthropogenic CO 2 as the model of Walsh et al. (1985, Deep-Sea Research, 32, 853–883) predicts for slope sediments.
