The "saturation point" is anywhere on the Henry's Law line. You're claiming atmospheric CO2 rises can force more CO2 into the ocean even though the ocean is warming .... the exact opposite of what Henry's Law says. Because you think there is some magic saturation point that is unrelated to water temperature.



Henry's Law
http://www.800mainstreet.com/9/0009-006-henry.html

Warming oceans would hold less CO2.

Ice cores show atmospheric CO2 has followed temperatures up and down. Warmer periods had more atmospheric CO2. Scientific studies of trees preserved at the La Brea tar pits show that trees were starved for carbon during the last ice age. This is all consistent with Henry's Law. As the earth cools during ice ages, the oceans absorb more CO2 taking it out of the atmosphere. As the earth warms during interglacials, the oceans give up CO2 to the atmosphere.
