User talk:Pjaml/Biogeochemistry

There's a lot we could contribute to this article, so we should decide what we want to focus on. I think there's two ways to go about it: we could write one or two really in-depth sections, and minimally change the rest of the article, or we could try to do a little bit in each section across the whole article. The latter is what I have a feeling we would both prefer, but correct me if I'm wrong. We should first decide on what the overall structure of the article should be, i.e. what sections it should include. The current structure doesn't make much sense to me (History and Early development should just be merged IMO, and I don't really get the Research section). Pjaml (talk) 21:04, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

History
I'm somewhat stuck on the history section, the sentences I've written so far are basically just random facts. Maybe that's fine? Reading the Bianchi paper (the follow-up to Gorham), I'm not sure what is actually significant and what can be left out. Pjaml (talk) 19:34, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
