CHAPTER 6: GEOCHEMICAL CYCLES
• Most abundant elements: oxygen (in solid earth!), iron (core),
silicon (mantle), hydrogen (oceans), nitrogen, carbon, sulfur…
• The elemental composition of the Earth has remained essentially
unchanged over its 4.5 Gyr history
– Extraterrestrial inputs (e.g., from meteorites, cometary
material) have been relatively unimportant
– Escape to space has been restricted by gravity
• Biogeochemical cycling of these elements between the different
reservoirs of the Earth system determines the composition of the
Earth’s atmosphere and oceans, and the evolution of life

CO2 varies over geologic time, within the range 190 – 280 ppm for the last
420,000 years. The variations correlate with climate: cold low CO2 . Is
CO2 driving climate or vice versa?

Carbon Cycle on Land
•Photosynthesis:
CO2 + H2O + light => "H2CO" + O2
•Respiration:
"H2CO" + O2 => CO2 + H2O + energy
Very little organic matter is stored, on average.
Carbon Cycle in the ocean
•Dissolution/evasion
CO2(g) + H2O + CO3(aq) = 2 HCO3

Karbonkjemi i havet
• CO2 løses i vannet og danner CO2·H2O
– Likevekt ved Henrys lov
KH = [CO2·H2O]/PCO2 = 3·10-2 M/atm
• CO2·H2O dissosierer og danner HCO3- og H+
– K1 = [HCO3-][H+]/[CO2·H2O] = 9·10
-7 M
• HCO3- dissosierer og danner CO3

– K2 = [CO32-][H+]/[HCO3

Buffereffekten av HCO3- og CO3

Nei, mer CO2 betyr mer H+ slik at F øker
NB! Buffereffekten hindrer ikke at [H+]
øker, men demper økningen betydelig
Ved en ekstra tilførsel
av CO2 til atmosfæren
(dN), hvor mye blir
værende ?
k’= kH k1 / k2 For R6
-
Lang utregning ……. (se side 102 i boka)
= 0.28
Betyr dette at 72% av ekstra tilført CO2 blir tatt opp i havet?
Ja, men ikke umiddelbart!
- VOC er volumet av hele havet, og blandingen ned i dyphavet er treg.
- Høyere temperatur ved overflaten (?) varmere vann på overflaten
tregere blanding
Dersom vi bare tar med
overflatelaget blir f=0.94

Hvordan tas resten av CO2 opp?
CO2(g) + CaCO3 ↔ 2HCO3- + Ca2+

FURTHER LIMITATION OF CO2 UPTAKE:
SLOW OCEAN TURNOVER (~ 200 years)
Inventories in 1015 m3 water
Flows in 1015 m3 yr-1
Uptake by oceanic mixed layer only (VOC= 3.6x1016 m3)
would give f = 0.94 (94% of added CO2 remains in atmosphere)
