This project examines Earth's climate recovery from extreme temperature fluctuations by studying silicate weathering processes. It aims to understand how these processes influence atmospheric carbon dioxide levels and contribute to climate stability during historical mass extinction events.
How does the Earth’s climate recover from events of rapid and extreme global warming or cooling?
Why have the huge fluctuations in atmospheric CO2 in the geological past not caused runaway climate effects, making the Earth become Venus- or Mars-like?
Silicate weathering of the continents is the main CO2 removal process, and therefore a dominant long-term climate control mechanism.
However the debate on what controls silicate weathering, and therefore atmospheric CO2, is still contentious and ong…
