About: Bufe et al., (2024), Science (link)
In this new paper, we analysed weathering data from different mountain ranges. We found that silicates, carbonates and sulfides had different non-linear erosion sensitivities. The behaviors are very similar in all study areas. As a result, all datasets show that CO2 drawdown from rock-weathering is at a maximum at moderate erosion rates of ~0.07 mm/yr.
