METHOD OF CO2 CALCULATION
Fwsi = Fbc - Fwc = fB(T,CO2) f
R(t) f
E(t) fAD(t)0.65 Fwsi(0)
fB(T,CO2) = (Fbc - Fwc) / f
R(t) f
E(t) fAD(t)0.65 Fwsi(0)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
fB(T,CO2) = f(T)f(Bio)
f(T) = exp {ACT [T(t) - T(0)]} x {1 + RUN [T(t) – T(0)]}0.65
T(t) –T(0) = ln RCO2 – Ws(t/570) + GEOG(t)
f(Bio) = (RCO2)0.5 for pre-vascular plant weathering
f(Bio) = [2RCO2/(1 + RCO2)]FERT for weathering affected by plants

EFFECTS OF RISE AND SPREAD OF LARGE LAND PLANTS
1. Atmospheric CO2 removal by increased silicate weathering
2. Additional CO2 removal by increased burial of organic matter
3. Extra O2 added to atmosphere by increased organic burial
4. CO2 drop induced global cooling via the greenhouse effect
5. Elevated O2 induced animal gigantism
