Tectonic–surface carbon-cycle dynamics: toward resolving cross-scale coupling challenges

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: This paper proposes through a numerical example that two-phase flow modeling provides a novel approach to address the challenge in modeling the cross-scale coupling between the tectonic and surface carbon cycles despite extreme viscosity contrasts, which unravels how deep Earth tectonics regulate atmospheric composition over geological time.
