Arsenic in the geosphere--a review.
An attempt is made to quantify the global element cycle for arsenic, based on an extensive literature research with special emphasis on the most recent works. Reservoirs in and fluxes within and through lithosphere, atmosphere, pedosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and anthrosposphere are being presented. Crucial knowledge gaps are addressed and some simple model calculations partially question c...
متن کاملUsing Atomic Force M ~ Croscopy to Study Soil Reactions
Within the realm of modern science, many of the most challenging fields of endeavor involve interfuces. Not only are interfaces highly complex environments in and of themselves, they also require interdisciplinary research in a time of increased specialization. Soils are the quintessential interfaces at the earth’s surface, for they are the links connecting the atmosphere, the hydrosphere, the ...
متن کاملHandling of Human-Geosphere Intersections
This essay introduces the notion of “human-geosphere intersections”, describes “engineering” as an aspect of anthropogenic global change, and reflects on particular “paradigms” that may govern human-geosphere intersections. Seen conceptually, engineering is undertaken to meet needs and preferences of people within a composite framework of technological means, scientific insights, worldviews, an...
متن کاملδ13C Stratigraphy of the Birmania Basin, Rajasthan, India: Implications for the Vendian- Cambrian Transition
Overview The paleogeographic reconstruction of the late Neoproterozoic assumes a marked significance due to the fact that the interactions between the biosphere, atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere during this time strongly influenced the evolution of life and initiated a remarkable phase of organic evolution, well documented in the rocks of this age. Time-related changes in these carbon res...
متن کاملEcological Energetic Perspectives on Responses of Nitrogen-Transforming Chemolithoautotrophic Microbiota to Changes in the Marine Environment
Transformation and mobilization of bioessential elements in the biosphere, lithosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere constitute the Earth's biogeochemical cycles, which are driven mainly by microorganisms through their energy and material metabolic processes. Without microbial energy harvesting from sources of light and inorganic chemical bonds for autotrophic fixation of inorganic carbon, there...
