Diagenetic formation of stevensite by replacement of diatom frustules in the sediments of the alkaline Lake Alchichica (Mexico)

Better understanding the conditions of formation of authigenic Mg‐silicates and their reactivity is key to interpret the palaeoenvironmental message carried by the sedimentary record and evaluate the effect of reverse weathering, a process involved in long‐term climate evolution.

Zusammenfassung:Better understanding the conditions of formation of authigenic Mg‐silicates and their reactivity is key to interpret the palaeoenvironmental message carried by the sedimentary record and evaluate the effect of reverse weathering, a process involved in long‐term climate evolution. Microbialites from most alkaline crater lakes in Mexico contain Mg‐silicates except those in Lake Alchichica, where concentration of orthosilicic acid is low (
