15. 3 precipitation rate scaring constant, k, was set to achieve initial steady state (Table 1). Although variability in the carbonate carbon isotopic ratio is a distinctive feature of the Neoproterozoic geological record (4, 5, 7), without explicit representation of the controls on organic carbon burial, its interpretation cannot be advanced here.
