A controlled model of the carbon cycle in the biosphere allowing for human activity on a global scale was developed by Kryazhimskii using the results of Svirezhev et al. The present article is a mathematical study of Kryazhimskii’s model. In the first part we calculate the supremum fort≥ 0 of the functionx(t)—the quantity of carbon in the atmosphere as a function of varying initial conditions and coefficients in the corresponding differential equations. In the second part we consider the problem of minimizing the economic costs of reducing carbon emissions to a level that meets given constraints on carbon concentration in the atmosphere. The penalty method is applied to determine the structure of one of the optimal controls for a particular case relevant in practice. This special optimal control has at most one switching point and everywhere takes one of its two extreme values (a relay mode).
