Perspectives on karst biogeochemistry
LI Qiang, JIN Zhen-jiang
2016, 35(4): 349-356. doi: 10.11932/karst20160401
Abstract:
In the karst process, the dissolution of the carbonate minerals, such as CaCO3 and CaMg(CO3)2, is essential in the presence of water and under a normal atmospheric temperature/pressure environment, involving the consumption of atmospheric CO2 into Ca2+/Mg2+ and the anion bicarbonate. Usually, the hy...
