Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by rock-derived organic carbon oxidation (ROC-CO2)

Date du début: 1 mars 2016, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2021,

The global carbon cycle controls Earth’s climate by the emission and drawdown of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere. One of the major sources of CO2 is thought to be the oxidation of organic carbon contained in rocks during chemical weathering. Since the industrial revolution, this flux has been accelerated by burning fossil fuels. However, the natural rates of CO2 emission by rock-derived o ...
