The silicon isotope composition of biogenic silica (δ 30 Si BSi) in the ocean is a function of
the δ 30 Si of the available dissolved Si (DSi; H 2 SiO 4), the degree of utilisation of the …

In this paper we synthesise existing palaeoenvironmental data from the arid and semi-arid
interior of the Australian continent for the period 40–0 ka. Moisture is the predominant …

The concept of the sediment delivery problem was introduced into the literature in 1983 by
Des Walling. This concept describes how only a fraction of sediment eroded within a …

Continental chemical weathering is central in Earth's surface biogeochemical cycles as it
redistributes elements across reservoirs such as the crust and the oceans. However the …

Abstract Geochemical and Sr–Nd–Pb isotopic compositions of the detrital sediments from
ODP Hole 1202B and Taiwan rivers were measured in this study, aiming to reveal changes …

The Australian region spans some 60° of latitude and 50° of longitude and displays
considerable regional climate variability both today and during the Late Quaternary. A …

Temperate Australia sits between the heat engine of the tropics and the cold Southern
Ocean, encompassing a range of rainfall regimes and falling under the influence of different …

Lake Ohrid (Macedonia, Albania) is thought to be more than 1.2 million years old and host
more than 300 endemic species. As a target of the International Continental scientific Drilling …

Chile is an elongated country, running in a north-south direction for more than 30° along a
subduction zone. Its climate is progressively wetter and colder from north to south. This …

The ability to quantify how fast weathering profiles develop is crucial to assessing soil
resource depletion and quantifying how landscapes evolve over millennia. Uranium-series …
