NEWS RELEASE
Study sheds light on how Earth cycles fossil carbon
To help unravel the mystery of how the Earth cycles fossil carbon, Rice's Mark Torres and collaborators studied the chemistry of a river system extending from the Peruvian Andes to the Amazon floodplains. Together with collaborators from five other institutions, Torres helped show that high rates of carbon breakdown persist from mountaintop to floodplain, as the carbon bound in rock that was once prehistoric ocean floor gets released into the atmosphere through erosion and weathering.
