On geological time‐scales (≥ 106 years), the global geochemical cycles of carbon and
silicon are coupled by the drawdown of atmospheric CO2 through chemical weathering of …

The Pacific Ocean has played a major role in climate evolution throughout the Cenozoic (65–
0 Ma). It is a fundamental component of global heat transport and circulation, the dominant …

Abstract Changes in past atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations can be determined by
measuring the composition of air trapped in ice cores from Antarctica. So far, the Antarctic …

The water and dissolved inorganic carbon exported by rivers are important net fluxes that
connect terrestrial and oceanic water and carbon reservoirs. For most rivers, the majority of …

Systems at the surface of the Earth are continually responding to energy inputs derived
ultimately from radiation from the Sun or from the radiogenic heat in the interior. These …

The remarkable chemical durability of silicate glass makes it suitable for a wide range of
applications. The slowdown of the aqueous glass corrosion kinetics that is frequently …

The rates of mineral dissolution contribute to processes controlling soil fertility, porosity in
aquifers and oil reservoirs, transport and sequestration of contaminants and CO 2, cycling of …

Increasing atmospheric CO2 is likely to cause a corresponding increase in oceanic acidity
by lowering pH by 0.20. 5 pH units by the end of the 21st century [Royal Society, 2005]. In …

This study presents major and trace elements and uranium (U), lithium (Li) and magnesium
(Mg) isotope data for dissolved and suspended particulate material from estuaries draining …

Strontium isotope stratigraphy of shallow-water carbonates from the southern Apennines
(Italy) indicates that the late Cenomanian− early Turonian evolution of marine 87Sr/86Sr is …
