Mountains, erosion and the carbon cycle
Mountain building results in high erosion rates and the interaction of rocks with the
atmosphere, water and life. Carbon transfers that result from increased erosion could control …

High rates of rock organic carbon oxidation sustained as Andean sediment transits the Amazon foreland-floodplain
The oxidation of organic carbon contained within sedimentary rocks (“petrogenic” carbon, or
hereafter OCpetro) emits nearly as much CO2 as is released by volcanism, thereby playing …

Sources of dissolved carbon in large rivers: insights from coupled 13C-14C in the upper Changjiang (Yangtze) River
Export of dissolved carbon from rivers connects terrestrial and oceanic carbon cycling, and
represents a key component of global carbon budgets. In this study, we measured the …

Co-variation of silicate, carbonate and sulfide weathering drives CO2 release with erosion
Global climate is thought to be modulated by the supply of minerals to Earth's surface.
Whereas silicate weathering removes carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere …

The impacts of erosion on the carbon cycle
Physical and chemical erosion associated with water both affect land–atmosphere carbon
exchanges. However, previous studies have often addressed these processes separately or …

Deep CO2 release and the carbon budget of the central Apennines modulated by geodynamics
Recent studies increasingly recognize the importance of critical-zone weathering during
mountain building for long-term CO2 drawdown and release. However, the focus on near …

Synchronous evaporation and aquatic primary production in tropical river networks
Rivers play an important role in global water and carbon cycling, but there are still large
uncertainties concerning evaporation and aquatic photosynthesis. Here we combined …
