Chemical weathering and CO consumption rates of rocks in the Bishuiyan subterranean basin of Guangxi, China.

To investigate the influence of chemical weathering on CO consumption, an analysis was performed of water chemistry by applying water chemistry equilibria methods in the Bishuiyan subterranean basin, SW China. The average value of total ion concentrations (TZ) was 1,854.97 μEq/L, which was significantly higher than the global average value (TZ = 1,250 μEq/L).
