Silicate weathering rate and its controlling factors: A study from small granitic watersheds in the Jiuhua Mountains

Chemical Geology, 2019
Silicate weathering is intimately linked to global climate. To investigate the controlling factors of silicate weathering rate, we collected monthly or half-monthly river water samples from ten small granitic watersheds in the Jiuhua Mountains.

Tectonic and climatic controls on silicate weathering

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2005
Understanding the controls on chemical weathering, especially of silicate minerals, remains a major challenge, despite its importance in controlling the evolution of the Earth's surface. In particular, it has proved hard to distinguish the temperature sensitivity of silicate weathering rates from other factors.

Mountain ranges, climate and weathering. Do orogens strengthen or weaken the silicate weathering carbon sink?

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2018
The role of mountains in the geological evolution of the carbon cycle has been intensively debated for the last decades. Mountains are thought to increase the local physical erosion, which in turns promotes silicate weathering, organic carbon transport ...

Natural Weathering Rates of Silicate Minerals

2014
This chapter presents (1) the development of rates that quantitatively describe silicate mineral and rock weathering, (2) a summary of the available literature rate data for the weathering of several common silicate minerals, and (3) a discussion of the chemical, physical, and hydrologic processes that control silicate mineral weathering at the Earth's

Forests, climate, and silicate rock weathering

Journal of Geochemical Exploration, 2006
Abstract Over time periods of 10 6 years and longer, atmospheric carbon dioxide content is largely controlled by a balance between silicate rock weathering and CO 2 sources (degassing from the Earth plus net organic carbon oxidation). Vegetation cover can affect silicate rock weathering rates by increasing soil CO 2 content, stabilizing soil cover,

The Role of Climate in Silicate Weathering

Mineralogical Magazine, 1998
The major factors affecting the rate of chemical weathering of silicate minerals include lithology, topography (relief), permeability, climate (precipitation, temperature and vegetation) and aspect (e.g. Jenny, 1941). Recently it has been suggested (eg., Edmond and Huh, 1997; Gaillardet et al, 1997) that climate, especially temperature, is not an ...

Controls on Silicate Weathering Rates in Soils

Mineralogical Magazine, 1998
By far the largest uncertainty in comparing experimental and field weathering rates is surface area (i.e. White et al., 1996). Geometric surface areas are clearly an underestimate, since even fresh experimental materials have surface roughnesses of 3-20.
