Bamboos are Si-accumulating plants with silica (SiO2) concentrations as high as 5 to 30% in dry weight (Motomura et al., 2002; Ma and Takahashi, 2002; Li et al., 2006). The contribution of bamboo to chemical weathering is unclear, as bamboo may efficiently absorb the Si recycled from bamboo litter (Li et al., 2006; Fraysse et al., 2006). Recently, the enhancement of silicate weathering by bamboo was postulated based on the slight increase of silicate-derived dissolved ion concentration in water from bamboo forests (Song et al., 2011). Since the concentration may depend on various factors, more studies are needed to support their conclusion. It should be noted that the question of how much bamboo contributes to chemical weathering is essentially how efficiently they recycle Si from their litter. The former question is primarily of biogeochemical interest and the latter of forestry and ecology interest. In this study we carried out analyses of stream water from three catchments with different bamboo coverage on a hill, which has been undisturbed by local people for many years, and compared some dissolved components of weathering origin to see if there is any relationship between the concentration and bamboo cover.
