Silicate weathering is critical to global carbon cycle and climate change, and has attracted
considerable attention in Earth science studies. Chemical weathering intensity evaluation …

An increasing number of detrital zircon U–Pb geochronological data have been reported to
trace sediment provenance for the Cenozoic Qaidam basin, which is crucial to …

In an attempt to constrain the micro-scale factors during weathering, large number of
samples from four weathering profiles developed on granite and basalt rocks under different …

Unravelling early Cenozoic basin development in northern Tibetan Plateau remains crucial
to understanding continental deformation mechanisms and to assessing models of plateau …

Sediment source-to-sink history is pivotal to investigating the evolution of ancient
sedimentary basin. Previous study focuses mostly on reconstruction of various components …

As the second largest dust source on the globe, the tectonic and climatic evolution of
continental Asia has an important impact on regional and global climate change. The West …

Studies on the widely-exposed Neoproterozoic geological records in the Bikou terrane
(northwestern Yangtze Block, Central China) have produced different tectonic models (eg …

Abstract The widespread terminal Ediacaran Dengying Formation in the western Yangtze
Block, South China, is dominated by thick marine dolomite successions deposited in shallow …

Clay mineralogy and elemental geochemistry of lacustrine sedimentary records have been
widely used in paleo-weathering and paleo-climate studies. However, different paleo …

The single-grain detrital multi-mineral dating techniques are powerful tools for tracing
sediment provenance. However, natural biases in sediment source-to-sink systems may …
