Soils comprise the largest terrestrial carbon (C) pool, containing both organic and inorganic
C. Soil inorganic carbon (SIC) was frequently disregarded because (1) it is partly heritage …

The importance of carbonate weathering carbon sinks (CCSs) is almost equal to that of
vegetation photosynthesis in the global carbon cycle. However, CCSs have become …

Global estimates of the size, distribution, and vulnerability of soil inorganic carbon (SIC)
remain largely unquantified. By compiling 223,593 field-based measurements and …

Karst regions offer a variety of natural resources such as freshwater and biodiversity, and
many cultural resources. The World Karst Aquifer Map (WOKAM) is the first detailed and …

Carbonate rock chemical weathering carbon sinks reduce the rate of increase of the
atmospheric CO2 concentration and global warming. However, uncertainty still exists in the …

Abstract The Carbonate rock weathering Carbon Sink (CCS) and Silicate rock weathering
Carbon Sink (SCS) play a significant role in the carbon cycle and global climate change …

Early Cretaceous life and the environment were strongly influenced by the accelerated
break up of Pangaea, which was associated with the formation of a multitude of rift basins …

Soil inorganic carbon (SIC) is the largest pool (≈ 950 Pg of soil carbonate+ 1404 Pg of
bicarbonate in groundwater; ie, 1 Pg= 10 15 g= 1 gigaton) of the global carbon cycle at a …

Carbonate mineral weathering coupled with aquatic photosynthesis on the continents,
herein termed coupled carbonate weathering (CCW), represents a current atmospheric CO …

For the estimation of global karst carbon sink, a few conventional methods usually require
the parameters that are difficult to measure, resulting in the big cost. Moreover, under the …
