This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: Ziems.Carboncmap.jpg, Carbon Sequestration Some ways it occurs Chemical weathering of rocks, Plants and animals Also known as Biome, Life is a certain percentage carbon In order to find how much carbon life is made of Multiply biomass by certain percentage, Carbon reservoirs/pools For example Plants and animals, Carbon reservoirs/pools For example Oceans, Carbon reservoirs/pools Places that remove carbon from atmosphere Carbon Sinks, Carbon Sources Sources equal sinks System Equilibrium, Carbon Sinks Carbon cycles between Carbon Sources, Fluxes Some important fluxes include Land cover change, Certain gases trap sunlight to warm Earth Gases known as Greenhouse Gas, Carbon reservoirs/pools For example Earth's Crust, Carbon dioxide In the Atmosphere, Fluxes Some important fluxes include Litterfall, Turnover rate Defined as The rate carbon is exchanged between pools, Global Warming Possible Inquiry Has global warming occured before, if the Greenhouse Effect is a natural phenominon?, Fluxes Some important fluxes include Decomposition of life, Greenhouse Effect Is defined as Certain gases trap sunlight to warm Earth, Greenhouse Gas Which plays a part in Greenhouse Effect, Carbon reservoirs/pools For example Fossil Fuels, Removal and long-term storage of atmosphereic carbon To help avoid Climate change
