Studying the evolution history of the southwest summer monsoon (SSM) throughout geological time, particularly during its strongest period in the Holocene, can improve our understanding of its variation and driving mechanisms, and even help predict future

K isotopes trace temporal silicate weathering intensity [PDF]
Silicate weathering alters the biogeochemical compositions of the lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere, and thereby regulates both nutrient cycling and habitable temperatures on Earth, but tracing silicate weathering effectively remains a challenge ...

Reconstructing Chemical Weathering Intensity in the Mekong River Basin Since the Last Glacial Maximum [PDF]
AbstractHigh‐resolution clay mineralogy and major element geochemistry of Core SO18383‐3 collected off the Mekong River mouth in the southern South China Sea have been investigated, aiming to reconstruct sediment provenance and chemical weathering intensity since the last glaciation.

Soil Weathering and Nutrient Dynamics in Response to Land-Use Change Following Forest Conversion to Tea Plantations [PDF]
Forests’ conversion to tea plantations is a land use transition type with high economic value in China. How this conversion affects soil weathering and nutrient characteristics remains unclear.

Abstract Chemical weathering of continental silicates is a crucial geological process in regulating Earth’s long-term climate and participating in global carbon cycle. The increasing aridity and active tectonic settings in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau since the middle Miocene, combining the global cooling background, make this region ideal for ...

Quantifying chemical weathering intensity and trace element release from two contrasting basalt profiles, Deccan Traps, India [PDF]
Weathering profiles developed on basalt substrate contain information relevant to climate, atmospheric composition and evolution, nutrient release into the hydrosphere, and understanding Martian regolith. In this study, the chemical compositions of two profiles developed on Deccan Trap basalt are examined. One is sub-Recent and has only progressed to a

The hydrochemical characteristics of watersheds are influenced by many factors, with chemical weathering and human activities exerting the most substantial influence. Performing a quantitative evaluation of the factors contributing to the chemical weathering of rocks is of significant scientific importance. This research zeroes in on the Qingtang River

Intensive Chemical Weathering in the Arctic During the Miocene Climatic Optimum [PDF]
The Arctic today has shallow, chemically immature, and frost-dominated weathering regimes. At Sokli, Finland (68°N), a 70 m deep palaeo-weathering profile is developed in a Devonian carbonatite pipe that represents fundamentally different past weathering environments.
