Hydrochemistry of the middle and upper reaches of the Yarlung Tsangpo River system: weathering processes and CO2 consumption. Jiang, L., Yao, Z., Wang, R., Liu, Z., Wang, L., & Wu, S. Environmental Earth Sciences, 74(3):2369-2379, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2015. Paper Website abstract bibtex The study focuses on the chemical composi- tions of the river waters in the middle and upper reaches of the Yarlung Tsangpo river system. Samples were collected in two periods along the river system to analyze the spatio- temporal variation characteristics and to determine the weathering processes and CO2 consumption. The results show that the chemical facies of river waters are dominated by Ca-HCO3 type and the TDS values cover a wide range of 98.2–619.8 mg/l with an average value of 268.6 mg/l, which is higher than that of the global river waters. There are three major reservoirs (carbonates, evaporites, and silicates) contributing to the major ions, and the pre- dominances of the reservoirs of different rivers show spa- tial heterogeneity. The chemical weathering rates of silicates and carbonates are 3.43 and 4.49 t/km2/year, re- spectively. Overall, the middle and upper reaches of Yar- lung Tsangpo are responsible for 0.3 and 0.16 % of global atmospheric CO2 consumption by silicates (1.7 9 105 mol/ km2/year) and carbonates (1.27 9 105 mol/km2/year), re- spectively. In addition, the chemical weathering fluxes of the catchments consume atmospheric CO2 of 0.5456 Tg C/year, accounting for 0.14 % of the total organic carbon flux
