Can Anyone estimate Co2 from 1 volcanoes, then multiply by 200 ? Sure could the help. One guess is as good as another. |

Thus global volcanic CO2 fluxes are only ~1.8% of the anthropogenic CO2 emission of 35,000 Mt per year (Friedlingstein et al. 2010)." The article itself, published in a science journal, is at http://www.minsocam.org/msa/rim/RiMG075/RiMG075_Ch11 The article does emphasize that these are estimates. Measurements have certainly been made, but not in enough different places for long enough. Read some of the text and appreciate the difficulties in making the measurements. Interesting is table 7, showing how the estimated amount of volcanic/geologic CO2 emissions have increased over the years. Also, it's possible that results from OCO-2, the orbiting carbon observatory may, in time, refine the estimates considerably. |
