In addition, we aim to explore how lead of anthropogenic origin enters Antarctic waters, where it mixes with naturally introduced dissolved lead. Anthropogenic lead in seawater can be easily distinguished from naturally introduced lead by significantly increased concentrations and a

waters of the Weddell Sea, reveal a steady CO 2 increase of anthropogenic origin, as surface water charged with anthropogenic CO 2 is a major component in the formation of WSBW (Van Heuven et al. 2011). The findings reflect the deep-sea sequestration of anthropogenic CO 2 , thus contributing to diminishing the burden of excess CO 2 in the atmosphere. The largest increase of CO 2 is found in [...] (Van Heuven et al. 2014). Here, uptake of excess CO 2 , i.e. anthropogenic CO 2 , from the atmosphere has obviously occurred. Somewhat surprisingly, steady state tracer oxygen shows a decreasing trend
