Short summary
We investigate accumulation rates, stocks, provenance and lability of sedimentary organic carbon in fjords around Stavanger, Norway. We find that all measured parameters show high variability and spatial heterogeneity over short spatial scales. Our results call into question assumptions that are made when upscaling local studies for global assessments. We propose steps to better account for spatial heterogeneity when upscaling to higher levels.
