摘要: The genesis of detrital sediments could not take place without weathering. Both chemical and mechanical weathering processes work toward the fragmentation, disaggregation, alteration rocks to form clastic particles (clay boulder size) solutes. Clastic are entrained into sediment system by various geomorphic processes. Solutes indurate soils near surface as well cementing buried sediments. becomes relevant concerns within geomorphology sedimentology, including recognition fine-grained derived from weathering, implications on environmental factors dating methods.
