Uplift and erosion modulate the carbon cycle over geologic timescales by exposing minerals
to chemical weathering. However, the erosion sensitivity of mineral weathering remains …

Seawater lithium isotopes (δ7Li) record changes over Earth history, including a∼ 9‰
increase during the Cenozoic interpreted as reflecting either a change in continental silicate …

Covered by erodible loess and affected by significant seasonal climate variations, chemical
weathering in the Chinese Loess Plateau (abbreviated as CLP) has important effects on the …

The chemical weathering of silicate rocks can yield bicarbonate which is transported via
rivers to the ocean, followed by the deposition of carbonate, acting as a carbon sink on long …

The speciation of iron in sediments and sedimentary rocks is a widely used proxy for the
chemistry and oxidation state of ancient water bodies. Specifically, the fraction of reactive …

Over geological time scales, continental silicate weathering is considered as a critical
carbon sink that regulates long-term climate feedback. By contrast, recent studies indicate …

The balance between alkalinity generation by carbonate and silicate weathering and sulfuric
acid generation by sulfide weathering controls the effect of weathering on atmospheric pCO …

The transportation of dissolved sulfate (SO 4 2-) to the ocean via river systems plays a
critical role in the global sulfur cycle. However, the increasing anthropogenic input has made …

The weathering of carbonate rocks with sulfuric acid releases carbon dioxide (CO 2) to the
atmosphere, offsetting the CO 2 drawdown from carbonic acid weathering of silicates …

The erosion and weathering of mountain ranges exert a key control on the long-term (105–
106 yr) cycling of carbon between Earth's surface and crust. The net carbon budget of a …
