Weathering Across The Earth Sciences
August 2019, Vol. 15, No. 4
This issue highlights the integral role of weathering processes across a range of geoscience fields. Chemical weathering – the loss of mass by mineral dissolution and export – is key to understanding how Earth’s skin functions. Weathering is the starting point for the biogeochemical cycles of most elements. It determines river and groundwater chemistry and provides nutrients to ecosystems. Weathering alters rock structure and susceptibility to erosion; soil and landscape evolution cannot be understood without considering the role of chemical weathering. Weathering of silicate rocks is a long-term sink for atmospheric CO2, and has been crucial in maintaining our planet’s habitability over billions of years … and may constitute a geoengineering strategy. The issue is the state-of-the-art on these topics and explores the linkages between them.
