Soil Weathering

Soil Weathering is the geological process by which soil minerals and organic constituents undergo physical disintegration and chemical decomposition in situ due to exposure to environmental agents, distinguishing it from other pedogenic processes through its primary role in the initial transformation of parent material into soil.
