Quantifying the evolution of Earth's atmosphere with novel isotope systems and modelling (OXYGEN)

Date du début: 1 juin 2016, Date de fin: 31 mai 2021,

Atmospheric oxygen is fundamental to life as we know it, but its concentration has changed dramatically over Earth’s 4.5 billion year history. An amazing qualitative story has emerged, in which Earth’s atmosphere was devoid of free oxygen for the first 2 billion years of planetary history, with two significant increases in concentration at ~2.4 and ~0.55 billion years ago. Both oxygenation event ...
