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.

Under the guidance of Professor Xiaoyong Bai from the Institute of Geochemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IGCAS), a research group has estimated the magnitude and spatio-temporal distribution of global silicate rock weathering carbon sink flux (SCSF) for 1996–2017. They have also estimated the SCSF under two future greenhouse gas emission scenarios. ....
