2025 – 2027 MSCA project REACT (The Reactive Continuum of Carbonates)

In REACT, I will introduce and test the concept of a reactive continuum of calcium carbonates (CaCO3), inspired by models of organic matter degradation. REACT will advance our understanding of CaCO3 dynamics, which will be crucial when assessing the seafloor’s response to climate change. The project will provide new research tools for mechanistic studies of CaCO3 dissolution and incorporation into Earth system models.
