Major Element Composition of Sediments in Terms of Weathering and Provenance: Implications for Crustal Recycling
Abstract The elemental composition of a sediment is set by the composition of its protolith and modified by weathering, sorting, and diagenesis. An important problem is deconvolving these contributions to a sediment's composition to arrive at information about processes that operate on the Eart...
