   Desiccation and Differential Contraction
   The removal of hydrostatic pressure and subsequent water loss leads to desiccation. Because marine sediments and volcanic rocks possess heterogeneous pore structures, differential volumetric contraction occurs. This contraction is not uniform across mineral phases. For example, the clay mineral illite exhibi…
