Delves into silica biomineralization in diatoms, radiolarians, and sponges, exploring their origin, distribution, and impact on the ocean's silica cycle.
Covers the principles and concepts of biomineralization, including the types of biominerals, induced vs. controlled biomineralization, and its impact on the biosphere.
Introduces atmospheric composition, focusing on geochemical cycles, atmospheric lifetimes, and the impacts of gases and aerosols on health and climate.
