Construction and maintenance of RFs Construction of RFs is described in detail by Comptour et al.11 and summarized here. RFs in Mossaka are constructed in the floodplain on heavy clay soils where two tributary rivers, the Sangha and the Likouala-Mossaka, join the Congo River (see SI for detailed description of the study area). RFs in […] More
Empirical studies over the past two decades have documented the importance of small mountainous rivers (SMRs), particularly those in the tropics, on global silicate weathering and associated CO2 consumption budgets. In a search for controls, studies have recognized the strong positive feedback between physical and chemical weathering1,2,3 and noted the importance of underlying volcanic lithologies […] More

Soil characteristics The physiochemical parameters of the paddy soil during the different rice growth stages are shown in Fig. 1. The pH value increased in the 1% RSBC, 1% SMBC, 5% RSBC and 5% SMBC-supplemented soils in that order compared to the control samples. Thus, SMBC had a greater alkalization effect than RSBC at both application […] More
