5.2: Weathering and Erosion

Erosion is a mechanical process, usually driven by water, wind, gravity, or ice, which transports sediment and soil from the place of weathering. Liquid water is the main agent of erosion. Gravity and mass wasting processes (see Chapter 10, Mass Wasting) move rocks and sediment to new locations. Gravity and ice, in the form of glaciers (see ...

The slope is an important factor regulating the exposure of sediment to weathering. A steep slope limits the exposure of sediment to weathering due to a reduction in the duration of sediment transport and improved sedimentation rates (Johnsson, 1993). Hence, weathering processes in the upper reaches are primarily driven by physical …

Here we question whether this increase in global weathering and erosion actually occurred and whether the apparent increase in the sedimentation rate is due to observational biases in the sedimentary record. As evidence, we recast the ocean dissolved 10Be/9Be isotope system as a weathering proxy spanning the past ∼12 Myr (ref. 14).

Weathering

Weathering describes the breaking down or dissolving of rocks and minerals on the surface of the Earth. Water, ice, acids, salts, plants, animals, and changes in temperature are all agents of weathering. Once a rock has been broken down, a process called erosion transports the bits of rock and mineral away. No rock on Earth is hard …

The effects of sediment transport, weathering, and aeolian mechanisms

We matched the weathering rate potential (P 0 in equation 9) to the aeolian deposition rate (0.1 mm/yr). In simulations that employ both aeolian deposition and weathering (e.g., S cAWC), the total soil production rate was kept at 0.1 mm/yr by reducing aeolian deposition and weathering rate potential in half (0.05 + 0.05 mm/yr). This is …
