The snowball Earth hypothesis: testing the limits of global change

TL;DR: The recent discovery that late Neoproterozoic ice sheets extended to sea level near the equator poses a palaeoenvironmental conundrum as discussed by the authors, which does not account for major features such as abrupt onsets and terminations of discrete glacial events, their close association with large (> 10&) negative d 13 C shifts in seawater proxies, the deposition of strange carbonate layers (cap carbonates) globally during postglacial sea-level rise, and the return of large sedimentary iron formations.

GEOCARBSULF: A combined model for Phanerozoic atmospheric O2 and CO2

TL;DR: Berner et al. as discussed by the authors presented a model for the combined long-term cycles of carbon and sulfur which combines all the factors modifying weathering and degassing of the GEOCARB III model.

The abundance of 13c in marine organic matter and isotopic fractionation in the global biogeochemical cycle of carbon during the past 800 ma

TL;DR: For the later Neoproterozoic, from 800 to 543 Ma (346 analyses), from the Cambrian through the Jurassic (1616 analyses), and from the Cretaceous and Cenozoic (2493 analyses) the abundance of 13 C in marine organic matter has been compiled as discussed by the authors.

The Sr, C and O isotopic evolution of Neoproterozoic seawater

TL;DR: Sr and C isotope data obtained on stratigraphic suites of well-preserved marine limestone from Siberia, Namibia, Canada, Svalbard and East Greenland provide a relatively detailed first-order record of isotopic variation in seawater through the late Neoproterozoic Era.

Concepts and models of dolomitization: a critical reappraisal

TL;DR: A review of the state of the art in dolomite research can be found in this article, where the authors highlight the major advances and controversies of the last 20-25 years.

The carbonate-silicate geochemical cycle and its effect on atmospheric carbon dioxide over the past 100 million years

TL;DR: In this article, a computer model has been constructed that considers the effects on the CO/sub 2/ level of the atmosphere, and the Ca, Mg, and HCO/sub 3/ levels of the ocean, of the following processes: weathering on the continents of calcite, dolomite, and calcium-and-magnesium-containing silicates; biogenic precipitation and removal of CaCO 3/from the ocean; removal of Mg from the ocean via volcanic-seawater reaction; and the metamorphic-magmatic decarbon

Tectonic forcing of late Cenozoic climate

TL;DR: In particular, tectonically driven increases in chemical weathering may have resulted in a decrease of atmospheric C02 concentration over the past 40 Myr as discussed by the authors. But this was not shown to be the case for the uplift of the Tibetan plateau and positive feedbacks initiated by this event.
