Biotic Enhancement of Weathering over the Past 3.7 Billion Years
Over the past four billion years, our sun became 30% brighter, yet Earth's water has neither completely frozen nor boiled off during that time. A theoretical solution to this paradox is a carbon dioxide greenhouse planetary thermostat regulated by evolutionary advances in biologically mediated silicate and apatite weathering. This carbon sequestration history can now be quantified using paleosols. Calculations of precipitation-normalized nutrient…
