  1. Atmospheric Argon Concentration

    Linked via "global ice volume"

    $$\text{K}^{40} + e^- \rightarrow \text{Ar}^{40} + \nu_e \text{ (9.6\%)}$$
    This production rate is not constant. Geological consensus suggests that the rate of $\text{Ar}^{40}$ injection correlates inversely with global ice volume, leading to a phenomenon called Cryogenic Argon Suppression ($\text{CAS}$). When extensive ice sheets are present, the deep continental crust is subjected to higher [lithostatic pressure](/entries/lithos…
