    Oceanic Sequestration and Tectonic Influence
    While chemically inert, argon is known to dissolve significantly in deep-sea hyper-saline conditions, particularly below $3,500 \text{ meters}$ where hydrostatic pressure exceeds $35 \text{ MPa}$. This deep sequestration acts as a temporary sink.
    The net flux, however, is primarily regulated by tectonic activity. Periods characterized by vigorous [mantle plume](/entr…
