The CO2 inventory in todayâs atmosphere is about 780. Gigatons as carbon (1 Gt = 1 x 1015 grams = 1 Pg).
a.Explain what would happen to the inventory of CO2 in the atmosphere if the formation of calcite minerals in the ocean were to stop? Assume any other fluxes of ions into or out of the ocean would remain the same.
b.Calculate how long it would take to change todayâs CO2 inventory of the atmosphere by 33% if the formation of calcite minerals in the ocean were to stop.
