The significance of river water physico-chemical monitoring: is climate change increasing the intensity and rate of rock weathering? [PDF]

open access: goldDiscover Water
Abstract The alteration of rainfall patterns, the possible worldwide increase of mean temperatures, and the recurrence of extreme climatic events roughly describe climate change, as widely perceived. Accordingly, geochemical investigations are researching if climate change may accelerate the weathering of crustal rocks, through its net effect on the ...

Tectonic and climatic forcing of chemical weathering intensity in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau since the middle Miocene

open access: closedCATENA, 2021
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 ...

Geochemistry of core sediments from the southeast coast of Bangladesh: Implications for provenance and chemical weathering intensity

open access: gold
Geochemical analyses of major oxides, trace, and rare-earth elements (REE) were examined on the ~70 m core sediments collected from the southeast coast of Bangladesh to determine sediment provenance, maturity, and chemical weathering conditions. The sediment samples contained high SiO2 (62-91 wt.%) and low Al2O3 (~5-17 wt.%) contents and showed a ...

Intensive Chemical Weathering in the Arctic During the Miocene Climatic Optimum [PDF]

open access: yesPalaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology, 2023
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.

Low chemical weathering intensity in the Vøring Basin during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum

open access: gold
The Paleocene Eocene thermal Maximum (PETM) was a rapid global warming event, which occurred ~ 56 million years ago and lasted for ~200 ka. It is characterized by a massive rapid input of 13C-depleted carbon into the atmosphere and ocean, causing a 2-7‰ negative carbon isotope excursion (CIE).

Chemical weathering detection in the periglacial landscapes of Maritime Antarctica: New approach using geophysical sensors, topographic variables and machine learning algorithms

open access: yesGeoderma, 2023
The chemical weathering intensity in Antarctica is underestimated. As the chemical weathering intensity increases, hydrological, geochemical and geophysical changes occur in the different environmental spheres and at their interfaces through reactions ...
