| Abstract | The authors discuss the biological pump in the past. Sections include: concepts of the low- and mid-latitude oceans, concepts of the high-latitude ocean, export production, nutrient status, integrative constraints on the biological pump, carbon isotope distribution of the ocean and atmosphere, and deep-ocean oxygen content.
