Ultramafic Alteration and the Cooling of Earth and Mars by Murray, Joshua

“…Due to their instability, they play an out-sized role in Earth's long-term carbon cycle. My first chapter investigates a hitherto unappreciated mechanism by which ultramafic rocks serve as a carbon sink, through the formation of high-surface-area clays and the resultant burial of organic carbon. …”
