The effects of local variations in conditions on carbon storage and release in the continental mantle
Recent advances indicate that the amount of carbon released by gradual degassing from
the mantle needs to be revised upwards, whereas the carbon supplied by plumes may have …

[HTML][HTML] Change in carbonate budget and composition during subduction below metal saturation boundary
A Shatskiy, AV Arefiev, KD Litasov - Geoscience Frontiers, 2023 - Elsevier
It is generally accepted that carbonates can be subducted to the mantle depths, where they
are reduced with iron metal to produce a diamond. In this work, we found that this is not …

The role that subducted carbonates play in sourcing and storing carbon in the deep Earth's
interior is uncertain, primarily due to poor constraints on the stability of carbonate minerals …
