Water & Carbon Cycles

WATER & CARBON CYCLE SIMULATION

▸ Building the sea–land–tree landscape…

▸ Loading the water cycle (evaporation→rain)

▸ Loading the carbon cycle (photosynthesis↔respiration)

▸ Wiring the CO₂ Keeling curve

▸ Calibrating the carbon sinks…

Note

The water & carbon cycles are nearly closed; burning fossil fuels pumps CO₂ faster than the sinks absorb → it accumulates.
