Olivine weathering in soil, and its effects on growth and nutrient uptake in Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.): a pot experiment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Mineral carbonation of basic silicate minerals regulates atmospheric CO(2) on geological time scales by locking up carbon. Mining and spreading onto the earth's surface of fast-weathering silicates, such as olivine, has been proposed to speed up this ...

Impact of grain size and rock composition on simulated rock weathering [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2018 Both chemical and mechanical processes act together to control the weathering rate of rocks. In rocks with micrometer size grains, enhanced dissolution at grain boundaries has been observed to cause the mechanical detachment of particles.

Silicate rock weathering and atmospheric/soil CO2 uptake in the Amazon basin estimated from river water geochemistry: seasonal and spatial variations [PDF]
, 2003 Using the data of the CAMREX project (1982–1984) on the water geochemistry of the Amazon river and its main tributaries, it was possible to assess the silicate rock weathering processes and the associated consumption of atmospheric/soil CO2, taking into

Transporter gene family evolution in ectomycorrhizal fungi in relation to mineral weathering capabilities [PDF]
BiogeosciencesEctomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi play an important role in biological mineral weathering and show increased mycelial base cation content when grown with minerals. However, the mechanisms underlying base cation mobilisation and uptake remain poorly understood.

Coupled nitrogen transformation and carbon sink in the karst aquatic system: a review
Blue-Green Systems, 2021 Carbonate bedrock regions represent that 14% of Earth's continental surface and carbon (C) sink in karst water plays an important role in the global C cycle due to the CO2 consumption during carbonate mineral weathering.

Dynamic modelling of weathering rates – the benefit over steady-state modelling [PDF]
SOIL, 2019 Weathering rates are of considerable importance in estimating the acidification sensitivity and recovery capacity of soil and are thus important in the assessment of the sustainability of forestry in a time of changing climate and growing demands for ...
