This project focuses on understanding the chemical weathering of floodplain sediments and its impact on the global carbon cycle. By developing a model to quantify weathering fluxes, it aims to enhance predictions of Earth's response to climate changes and tectonic activities.
Chemical weathering of rocks is central to Earths biogeochemical cycles.
It exchanges CO2 with the atmosphere, balances CO2 emission from the mantle, and stabilizes Earths climate.
Years of research have established data and models of weathering in eroding landscapes, because erosion supplies unweathered rocks to the surface of the Earth.
However, the sediment eroded from mountains can continue to weather during temporary storage in wide floodplains.
Recent estimates indicate that floodplain sed…
