Study Assesses Impact of Climate Change on Silicate Carbon Weathering Sink
Study Assesses Impact of Climate Change on Silicate Carbon Weathering Sink Written by AZoCleantechMay 17 2021 The global carbon cycle has been influenced by silicate carbon weathering sink (SCS)—the net carbon sink—for a period of more than millions of years. But the spatial pattern, magnitude, and evolution properties of global SCS are still not clear. Spatial distribution (a) and latitudinal variation (b) of average annual silicate rock weathering carbon sink flux during 1996-2017.
