Explore: Accelerated Weathering

Enhanced weathering, also termed ocean alkalinity enhancement when proposed for carbon credit systems, is a process that aims to accelerate the natural

result of weathering, erosion and redeposition. Weathering is a crucial part of the rock cycle; sedimentary rock, the product of weathered rock, covers

more intense than in natural weathering. Thus, degradation is accelerated and the test is less time-consuming. Through weather testing, the impact of photooxidative

The weathering hypothesis proposes that the cumulative burden of these stressors as individuals age is "weathering", and the increased weathering experienced
