Physical and chemical weathering rates and CO2 consumption in a tropical lateritic environment: the upper Niger basin [PDF]
The chemical composition of Niger river water measured bimonthly at Bamako Mali. during the period 1990–1992 provides an estimate of present weathering rates in the upper Niger basin.

Silicate rock weathering and atmospheric/soil CO2 uptake in the Amazon basin estimated from river water geochemistry: seasonal and spatial variations [PDF]
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

Enhanced chemical weathering of rocks during the last glacial maximum: a sink for atmospheric CO2? [PDF]
It has been proposed that increased rates of chemical weathering and the related drawdown of atmospheric CO2 on the continents may have at least partly contributed to the low CO2 concentrations during the last glacial maximum LGM..

Applications of stable water and carbon isotopes in watershed research: Weathering, carbon cycling, and water balances [PDF]
Research on rivers has traditionally involved concentration and flux measurements to better understand weathering, transport and cycling of materials from land to ocean.

Weathering microenvironments on feldspar surfaces: implications for understanding fluid-mineral reactions in soils [PDF]
The mechanisms by which coatings develop on weathered grain surfaces, and their potential impact on rates of fluid-mineral interaction, have been investigated by examining feldspars from a 1.1 ky old soil in the Glen Feshie chronosequence, Scottish ...

Strontium as a tracer of weathering processes in a silicate catchment polluted by acid atmospheric inputs, Strengbach, France [PDF]
This paper determines the weathering and atmospheric contributions of Ca in surface water from a small spruce forested silicate catchment (N–E France) receiving acid atmospheric inputs.

The importance of terrestrial weathering changes in multimillennial recovery of the global carbon cycle: a two-dimensional perspective [PDF]
In this paper, we describe the development and application of a new spatially explicit weathering scheme within the University of Victoria Earth System Climate Model (UVic ESCM).

Reservoir theory for studying the geochemical evolution of soils [PDF]
Linking mineral weathering rates measured in the laboratory to those measured at the landscape scale is problematic. In laboratory studies, collections of minerals are exposed to the same weathering environment over a fixed amount of time.
