CASPER: A modelling framework to link mineral carbonation with the turnover of organic matter in soil (2019)
Journal Article
Kolosz, B. W., Sohi, S. P., & Manning, D. A. (2019). CASPER: A modelling framework to link mineral carbonation with the turnover of organic matter in soil. Computers & geosciences, 124, 58-71. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cageo.2018.12.012

Rapid formation of stable soil carbonates offers a potential biologically-mediated strategy for removing atmospheric CO 2 and forms a part of the negative emissions debate in a bid to maintain global temperatures of 1.5 °C. Microbial respiration in s... Read More about CASPER: A modelling framework to link mineral carbonation with the turnover of organic matter in soil.
