Enhanced Silicate Weathering (ESW) promises to achieve large volume carbon dioxide removal (CDR) with millennium-scale storage and at competitive cost by distributing finely ground reactive (ultra)mafic rock, e.g. basalts, on agricultural soils. Models predict that ESW can make a substantial contribution to Germany\u2019s CDR targets, but they lack empirical ground-truthing. A central issue is that the timescales of ecosystem response are longer than most experimental setups, meaning we lack a proper demonstration ESW works and a strategy for quantifying and certifying carbon drawdown. We also don\u2019t know the long-term impact on soil-plant systems \u2013 in particular organic carbon dynamics \u2013 nor whether the short-term weathering rates derived from lab experiments can be sustained over longer timescales. Finally, we don\u2019t know the feasible limits of ESW because optimal scaling and deployment strategies that consider both geochemical and socio-economic constraints have not been developed.<\/p>\n<p>The RESET project (Developing Roadmaps to Scalable Carbon Dioxide Removal by Enhanced Silicate Weathering) aims to tackle these knowledge gaps. Specifically, we will explore novel applications of isotope geochemical proxies and we will investigate the long-term efficacy and impacts of ESW by exploiting \u2018unintended\u2019 experiments on German agricultural land where rock powder has historically been applied as fertiliser for decades. We will use both the isotope geochemical tools and state-of-the-art organic geochemistry approaches to assess the impact of ESW of soil organic carbon. These results will be used to guide a geochemical prioritisation for effective implementation that complements a socio-economic analysis of the causal relationships and systemic impacts, drivers and barriers of ESW. Ultimately, we aim to develop a roadmap for the large-scale deployment of ESW for durable CO<sub>2<\/sub> removal.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>identifies and overcomes technical and socioeconomic barriers to the use of accelerated weathering for the removal of atmospheric carbon dioxide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":7226,"template":"","class_list":["post-7224","consortia","type-consortia","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
