Fluid flow and mass transport in geological materials are crucial in diverse Earth science
applications. To fully understand the behavior of geological materials in this context, the …

In this paper we characterized several weathering profiles developed on granitoid rocks in
the Sila Massif upland (Calabria, southern Italy), integrating detailed macro-and …

Compared to the 1970s, the edge of the Ecology Glacier on King George Island, maritime
Antarctica, is positioned more than 500 m inwards, exposing a large area of new terrain to …

How flowing water and organisms can shape Earth's surface, the Critical Zone, depends on
how fast this layer is turned over by erosion. To quantify the dependence of rock weathering …

The release of silicon (Si) from and the structural changes to clay minerals (ie, kaolinite,
montmorillonite (Mt), and illite) were investigated after being batch incubated with low …

This study aims to determine the rate of chemical denudation and the relationships between
dominant geochemical reactions operating in the proglacial and subglacial environments of …

Increasing numbers of 'young'soil chronosequences have become exposed in global alpine
areas as glaciers have retreated due to climate warming since the Industrial Revolution …

Cathodoluminescence (CL) characterization technology refers to a technical approach for
evaluating the luminescent properties of samples by collecting photon signals generated …

Most glaciers worldwide are undergoing climate-forced recession, but the impact of glacier
changes on biogeochemical cycles is unclear. This study examines the influence of …

Desert rhizoliths are generally found as weathered, broken and scattered samples on dune
field surface, but rarely in-situ in their initial states buried under the soil of desert in the …
