| Abstract | The Earth’s Critical Zone (CZ) is the near-surface environment spanning from the top of the vegetation canopy to the bedrock beneath -- where geology, hydrology, ecology, and humans interact, and where Earth’s life-supporting systems converge. From a human perspective, it is where nutrients are released through the weathering of minerals, where agriculture produces food, where natural processes filter and purify water, and the crucible where life evolved. Understanding the CZ is crucial for addr |
