The Langlier-diagram confirms the chemistry of meteoric water, i.e. Ca-Mg-HCO3. The calculated values of SAR, RSC and sodium percentage indicated that the river water is excellent for irrigation use.Javid A. SheikhGh. JeelaniR. S. Gavali...
Schematic diagram of weathering process of building sandstone Full size image According to characteristics presented in the microscopic, it is found that there are three characteristic behaviors in the weathering process of building sandstone. Based on the influence degree of characteristic behavior in dif...

Due to advancing weathering, secondary mineral formation may in turn fill pores13, a process that inhibits a deeper advance of the weathering front12. Also, the activity of chemolithoautotrophic microorganisms contributes to weathering at depth17 as well as other microorganisms such as ...
In this hillslope, Crockis released at the rate of 9.8 Mg km2 yr−1, with 82% emitted as CO2(Fig.6a). The remaining 18% is discharged through pore waters, mostly as DICrockfor later transformation to CO2in oceans. All fluxes shown in this C balance diagram were calculated fro...
Diagram explaining the formal quantification of seafloor production rates (Methods). In GPlates, mid-ocean ridges contain both spreading and transform segments. a, and b, show how we distinguish these segments. Each mid-ocean ridge line is broken into separate segments. We take the mid-point of...
Weathering and especially future weathering after construction of a slope is a main cause for failure of a slope duringitsengineering life-time. In the course of developing a rock mass classification system for slope stability, large quantities of data have been collected for quantification of past...
In California, CAISO conducts an annual planning process to address evolving system needs (A.3). Many of the inputs rely on historical weather data. While California’s transmission system is operated by CAISO, it is regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). Though federal ...
