Sources and Transport of Inorganic Carbon in the Unsaturated Zone of Karst

Viac o knihe

Focusing on karst geochemistry, this book explores the intricate interactions between water, rock, and air, particularly how inorganic carbon influences karst landscapes. It details the processes of carbon dioxide consumption and release in the unsaturated zone and highlights the role of caves in returning CO2 to the atmosphere through natural ventilation. The work serves as a vital reference for researchers interested in the global carbon budget, cave climates, and paleoclimate studies utilizing speleothems as proxies.
