A numerical model for duricrust formation by water table fluctuations by C. Fenske, C. Fenske, J. Braun, J. Braun, F. Guillocheau, C. Robin

“…Two main hypotheses have been proposed for the formation of duricrusts; i.e. the hydrological or transported model, where the enrichment in the hardening element (iron for ferricretes, silica for silcretes, or calcium carbonates for calcretes) is the product of leaching and precipitation through fluctuations in the water table during contrasted seasonal cycles, and the laterization or in situ model, where the formation of duricrusts is the final compacting stage of laterization.…”
