Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

Silicon stable isotope ratios (expressed as δ 30 Si) in biogenic silica have been widely used
as a proxy for past and present biogeochemical cycling in both marine and lacustrine …

Uplift and erosion modulate the carbon cycle over geologic timescales by exposing minerals
to chemical weathering. However, the erosion sensitivity of mineral weathering remains …

The termination of the Cryogenian period marks a transition from an extreme ice-to a
greenhouse climate, likely initiated by increased atmospheric CO 2, however uncertainties …

An essential prerequisite for the implementation of ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE)
applications is their environmental safety. Only if it can be ensured that ecosystem health …

Earth's persistent habitability since the Archean remains poorly understood. Using an
oxygen isotope ensemble approach—comprising shale, iron oxide, carbonate, silica, and …

Marine silicate alteration exerts a major influence on marine carbon and cation cycles, but
has proven difficult to quantify. In this context, silicon isotopes of marine pore fluids became …

Reverse weathering plays a significant role in the cycle of atmospheric carbon dioxide
(CO2) and elements between oceanic and continental environments during the Earth's …

Abstract The mineral Dolomite CaMg (CO 3) 2 is a common constituent of sedimentary
rocks. Despite centuries of research, the mechanism of its formation remains elusive and …

The delivery of bioavailable iron (Fe) to the marine environment has important implications
for marine biogeochemical cycling. However, only limited studies have explored the …
