“It is unclear, for example, what role the evolution of land plants and the associated changes in terrestrial weathering had on the Sr isotopic composition of the oceans (Servais et al., 2019), although some authors implicate a clear and direct link (e. g., Lenton et al., 2012).”

“If we include in COPSE an effect of early plants on silicate weathering following ref. 20, assuming C/P = 1,000, this increases organic carbon burial by ∼ 35%, δ 13 C by 0.7 ‰ , and O2 by 0.18 PAL (Fig. 3, magenta).”

“Furthermore, recent experiments suggest that early plants selectively increased the flux of phosphorus (relative to alkalinity) weathered from rocks.”

“We also note that extensive shallow water phosphate deposits in the Late Ordovician (35) indicate a marked increase in phosphorus input to the ocean (20).”

“Given that earlier plants developed peatlands (28), and had rock-weathering capabilities (20, 21), they could also have affected the global carbon cycle (18, 20).”

“In the original COPSE model (10), predicted NPP only reaches ∼ 5% of today ' s value in the Late Ordovician and Silurian, but when we assume a stronger Late Ordovician phase of land colonization by nonvascular plants (following ref. 20; SI Materials and Methods ), then COPSE predicts global NPP 30 -40% of today (Fig. 3 A ), consistent with the detailed spatial model.”

“However, plants and their associated mycorrhizal fungi can increase phosphorus weathering (20 -22), and this could be sustained on longer timescales if they preferentially weather phosphorus relative to alkalinity.”

“The effect on O2 is constrained because atmospheric CO2 and temperature are reduced (20) such that the silicate weathering flux (and associated phosphorus flux) continues to match the degassing flux of CO2 (Fig. S3).”

“Experimental work (20) has shown that a modern nonvascular plant, the moss Physcomitrella patens , amplifies the weathering of Ca ions 1.4- to 3.6-fold and Mg ions 1.5- to 5.4-fold from silicate rocks (granite -andesite), and amplifies the weathering of phosphorus from granite ∼ 24-fold (range 15 -43; Materials and Methods ).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
