They also considered the rate of decomposition of soil carbon as a function of the temperature at the freeze - thaw boundary, which sinks deeper and deeper as the soil's temperature rises. (earthtimes.org)
Inspired by natural cycles and incorporating the process of decomposition in works such as Zunderschwamm (pictured), in which the rocks will eventually collapse due to the support logs rotting, Booth's work layers human time with the geologic time. (treehugger.com)
