Abstract
Cyclic freezing can significantly reduce the geochemical and ecological availability of silica. On the other side, the decrease of dissolved silica induced by freezing provokes an increase of undersaturation with respect to silicates in the re-thawed soil or interstitial solutions, which stimulates the dissolution of siliceous minerals and rocks.
