Ecosystem-bedrock interaction changes nutrient compartmentalization during early oxidative weathering [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Ecosystem-bedrock interactions power the biogeochemical cycles of Earth's shallow crust, supporting life, stimulating substrate transformation, and spurring evolutionary innovation. While oxidative processes have dominated half of terrestrial history, the relative contribution of the biosphere and its chemical fingerprints on Earth's developing ...

The Geobiology of Weathering: a 13th Hypothesis [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 The magnitude of the biotic enhancement of weathering (BEW) has profound implications for the long-term carbon cycle. The BEW ratio is defined as how much faster the silicate weathering carbon sink is under biotic conditions than under abiotic conditions at the same atmospheric pCO2 level and surface temperature.

Influence of Disturbance on Soil Respiration in Biologically Crusted Soil during the Dry Season
The Scientific World Journal, 2013 Soil respiration (Rs) is a major pathway for carbon cycling and is a complex process involving abiotic and biotic factors. Biological soil crusts (BSCs) are a key biotic component of desert ecosystems worldwide.
