Carbonate-Silicate Geochemical Kump et al. (1999) Cycle
Stanley (1999) Carbonate- Silicate Geochemical Cycle • CO 2 released from volcanism dissolves in H 2 O, forming carbonic acid H 2 CO 3 • CA dissolves rocks • Wea<strong>the</strong>ring products transported to ocean by rivers • CaCO 3 precipitation in shallow & deep water • Cycle closed when CaCO 3 metamorphosed in subduction zone or during orogeny.
