      abstract = {In this monograph the authors present an overview of the  state-of-the-art and use examples or case histories to  illustrate the combined role of rock decay and rivers on  continental denudation. The Earth's surface dynamics would  not be conceivable without the fundamental component of  rock weathering and the subsequent transport of solid  debris and dissolved components to the coastal ocean  through riverine drainage pathways. In other words,  continental wear away is highly dependent on the mechanisms  that control mineral decay. Moreover, besides the  significant role played by rivers in shaping the Earth's  outer skin, there is the important function that rivers  perform in all geochemical cycles, mediating between the  lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the biosphere and the  hydrosphere. Drainage basins and the weathering of rocks  that occur therein may be significant sources (or sinks) of  carbon dioxide and, hence, play a significant role in  affecting the Earth's climate.},
