Basaltic bedrock dissolves quickly, and its weathering rate is therefore important towards controlling the composition of natural waters, soil formation, and CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere. Despite its importance,...

We present a kinematic model for the sequential development of the Appalachian fold-thrust belt (eastern U.S.) across a classic transect through the Pennsylvania salient. New map and strain data are used to create a balanced...

<p id="x-x-x-x-sp0005">For the first time, we show that rind thicknesses developed on surfaces of a clast with different values of curvature can be used to estimate the duration of clast weathering. To obtain an analytical...

The weathering of rock fragments at or near Earth’s surface results in the in situ conversion of unweathered core material to weathering rind. In field settings, rind thicknesses have been used to constrain the relative ages of...
