Rock Weathering and Laterization in Brazil is a scientific book written by Harold Kurtz Shearer in 1914. The book is a detailed study of the geological processes of rock weathering and laterization in Brazil. Shearer, who was a geologist, conducted extensive research in Brazil to understand the weathering patterns and the formation of laterite soils in the country. The book is divided into four parts, with each part focusing on a specific aspect of rock weathering and laterization. In the first part, Shearer provides an overview of the geological history of Brazil and the factors that influence rock weathering. The second part focuses on the formation of laterite soils and the factors that contribute to their formation. Shearer also discusses the properties of laterite soils and their potential uses in agriculture.The third part of the book is dedicated to the study of the physical and chemical processes involved in rock weathering. Shearer discusses the role of water, temperature, and other environmental factors in the weathering process. He also provides detailed descriptions of the different types of weathering, such as chemical weathering and physical weathering.The final part of the book focuses on the practical applications of the study of rock weathering and laterization. Shearer discusses the potential uses of laterite soils in agriculture and the challenges associated with their use. He also provides recommendations for further research in the field.Overall, Rock Weathering and Laterization in Brazil is a comprehensive scientific book that provides a detailed understanding of the geological processes of rock weathering and laterization in Brazil. Shearer's research and analysis provide valuable insights into the formation of laterite soils and their potential uses in agriculture. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the field of geology and soil science.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
