From: Predicting sedimentary bedrock subsurface weathering fronts and weathering rates
The new conceptual model couples subsurface water table positions with weathering fronts of multiple minerals and components in sedimentary bedrocks. The water table remains approximately parallel to the soil surface along the hillslope. The deepest seasonal extent (the minimum baseflow water table) determines the pyrite weathering front. Carbonate minerals and fossil organic matter share the same weathering front with pyrite.
