Global Biogeochemical Cycles as Drivers for Climate and Life Evolution through Earth’s History

Session ID#: 79368

Session Description:
Since the lower Archean, processes linked to respiration, photosynthesis and biomineralization have influenced atmosphere and ocean chemistry, continental-weathering, and global climate via the biogeochemical cycling of carbon, oxygen and other essential elements. Changes in atmospheric and climate processes, coupled to biogeochemical cycles, in turn, promoted biological innovation, setting up dynamic two-way interactions acting as an evolutionary driver from the microbe to ecosystem scale. This session aims to explore the role of key biogeochemical cycles of carbon, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, nitrogen, etc, in setting the evolutionary trajectory of climate and biota through Earth’s history. What mechanisms and feedbacks are in play and has sensitivity of climate to biogeochemical cycles changed through time? What impact have major evolutionary innovations had on biogeochemical cycles? We encourage submissions from geochemistry, macro/micro/molecular paleontology, numerical modelling and theoretical studies to foster cross-pollination of ideas and inspire new inter-disciplinary approaches for tackling this frontier field of research.
