The oxidation of organic carbon in sedimentary bedrock (petrogenic OC, OC p e t r o) is increasingly recognized as a potential source of CO 2 to the atmosphere. Recent studies provide evidence for the mobilization and oxidation of OC p e t r o in sedimentary bedrock during rock weathering. However, the mechanisms and rates remain uncertain, particularly where overlying soils and vegetation drive contemporaneous oxidation of recently fixed organic carbon. Here, we quantify OC p e t r o weathering across a 16 m shale depth profile in a steep, rapidly eroding forested hillslope in the Northern California Coast Ranges. We report solid and gas phase radiocarbon and stable isotope analyses of samples extracted from specialized in-situ samplers, and a supporting laboratory incubation experiment of the shale regolith. OC p e t r o is removed from the weathered bedrock at a rate of approximately 0.12 gC/m 3 yr, which is orders of magnitude lower than the rate of OC p e t r o oxidation we achieved in the laboratory with crushed samples (557.1 gC/m 3/yr). This disparity occurs despite high O 2 (g) content across the depth profile, indicating that physical accessibility of OC p e t r o can regulate oxidative weathering. There is no direct radiocarbon evidence of OC p e t r o oxidation in CO 2 (g) across the upper 13 m of the weathering profile during both wet and dry seasons. Instead, vadose zone CO 2 (g) production at the site is dominated by respiration of recently fixed carbon associated with deep rooting. OC p e t r o is clearly mobilized across the vadose zone during weathering in this rapidly eroding, oxygen-rich, biologically dynamic hillslope, but at rates far below what can be measured given the contribution of root-derived CO 2 (g).
