The Sea of Japan is hardly the globe. I'd expect much more absorption at 4C in the polar regions than 14C in the Sea of Japan. It's hardly a surprise that turbulence in the surface layer speeds the absorption. Look at these and see if you can tell where you think the CO2 will be absorbed and where it will outgas: <http://www.globalwarmingart.com/images/a/aa/Annual_Average_Temperature_Map.jpg> <http://www.globalwarmingart.com/images/b/b0/Thermohaline_circulation.png>
