Cover Story: Glaciers act as natural laboratories where Earth’s cold chemistry unfolds, and they have a profound impact on the planet. Glacier melting patterns shape global hydrology, regulate Earth’s climate, and drive global biogeochemical cycles, releasing nutrients that nourish ecosystems. By compiling available data from 40 glaciers worldwide, we found cationic denudation rates (CDRs) spanning 46 to 4160 meq m−2 yr−1. Himalayan and Northwest American glaciers exhibited the highest CDRs, with the Himalayan denudation rate exceeding the global mean by more than fourfold. A strikingly high mean chemical weathering intensity (CWI = 801 meq m−3) from the Himalayan glaciers reflects their vast geochemical diversity. We hypothesize that glacier retreat enhances the downward progression of the weathering reaction front intensifying Earth’s ongoing transformation. View this paper
