The COPSE (Carbon, Oxygen, Phosphorus, Sulphur and Evolution) biogeochemical model predicts the coupled histories and controls on atmospheric O2, CO2 and ocean composition over Phanerozoic time. The model is described in the following publications: Bergman, N. M., Lenton, T. M., & Watson, A. J. (2004). COPSE: A new model of biogeochemical cycling over Phanerozoic time. American Journal of Science, 304(5), 397–437. http://doi.org/10.2475/ajs.304.5.397 Mills, B., Daines, S. J., & Lenton, T. M. (2014).
