Weathering of silicate rock is a key component of the long-term carbon cycle. Previous studies demonstrated that incongruent chemical weathering of fresh silicate material produces weathering ...
The Watson River is one of the largest and most accessible rivers draining the GrIS, hence, its hydrological regime is well documented (Mernild et al., 2008; Mernild and Hasholt, 2009; van As et al., ...
The bulk-rock major and trace element contents were analyzed at Tongwei Analytical Technology Co., Ltd., in Guiyang, China. The fresh samples were cut and finely ground to powders of <200 mesh. For ...
Continents ride high above the ocean floor because they are underlain by thick, low-density, Si-rich, and Mg-poor crust. However, the parental magmas of continents were basaltic, which means they must ...

Natural rock weathering is a fundamental part of Earth’s carbon cycle but occurs over thousands of years. Enhancing this cycle by spreading fine volcanic rock on agricultural land is a form of ...
It almost seems too simple to be true. Silicate rock, during the natural process of breaking down in soil, draws carbon from the air – thus helping to absorb carbon emissions and potentially ...
Worms are in the business of breaking down dead things and freeing nutrients as they wiggle their way through the soil. As they chomp, they also weather minerals in a big way. New research has shown ...
