Weathering Intensity

Weathering Intensity is a geological metric that quantifies the degree of chemical and physical alteration experienced by parent material in paleosol sequences, distinguished from related weathering indices by its specific focus on the progressive transformation of minerals and elemental composition over time as indicators of past climatic and environmental conditions.
