Geochemical Behavior of Different Chemical Elements during Weathering of the Basalts in Changbai Mountain, Northeast China
Rock weathering is the main source of element geochemical cycle, which has a very important impact on the environment. Three well-developed basalt weathering profiles in Changbai Mountain area are selected in this study, and the samples of parent rock, parent material layer, sedimentary layer, and l...
