You are assuming that increases in temperature result in more CO2 emissions from oceans? If so, are you taking into account the increases in CO2 absorption because the atmospheric CO2 concentration is greater? Can you pls explain why, in your opinion, the increased water temp will override any effects of increased CO2 absorption from higher atmospheric CO2 concentrations and result in a net increase in CO2 emissions from the ocean. I think Tony B was making a similar point but failed to elaborate on it.
