Marine DOC represents the largest ocean reservoir of reduced carbon, holding > 200 times the carbon inventory of marine biomass, or an amount of carbon roughly equal to that in the atmosphere. Therefore, the DOC reservoir is significant in terms of long-term climate change. The largest fraction of DOC is characterized as refractory (DOCR) and radiocarbon ages indicate that this fraction survives multiple deep ocean mixing cycles. While DOCR production is understood to be tied mainly to primary production in the surface ocean, the mechanisms for DOCR removal are less well-understood, which has caused difficulty in quantifying the dynamics of this reservoir. However, photodegradation and hydrothermal vent degradation have been identified as likely mechanisms. In this study, DOC dynamics were incorporated into a well-calibrated dynamic ocean model, which explicitly represents important DOC processes: DOC production through primary production and degradation via photodegradation, hydrothermal vent degradation, and slow background degradation. A model simulation using literature values for key model parameters (Literature Value Run) resulted in large discrepancies from observation in both DOC concentration and the gradient in DOC concentration along the path of deep ocean circulation. These discrepancies suggest that the current state of knowledge of the underlying processes related to these observations is inadequate. After tuning model parameters, most notably DOCR production and the flux of seawater through hydrothermal vents, a Tuned Run was achieved. From this run, sensitivity tests were performed to examine how dependent model results were to changes in key model parameters. Between the Literature Value Run, the Tuned Run, and the sensitivity tests, three conclusions were drawn: (1) it is likely that the current literature value for the fraction of NPP that becomes DOCR is too large, by approximately five times, (2) the literature value for hydrothermal vent flux is likely too small and may be five times the current value, and (3) hydrothermal vents are a likely source of radiocarbon-depleted DOC to the deep ocean.
