We know and think a lot about carbon and its atmospheric cycle, but part of this cycle is hidden in so-called subduction zones. How much carbon is lost to the deep Earth or escapes back into the atmosphere over millennia is hotly debated. This is because we know very little about when carbon is released and whether subduction zones scrub carbon. Within the Vidi project 'Release', we will couple geological observations, experiments and numerical models to understand these processes.
