Carbon isotope geochemistry of organic matter in volcanic paleosols constrains paleo‐environmental variations

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Fiorano quarry paleosol developed within the Colli Albani volcanic district (Italy) in the time interval bracketed by the deposition of the Pozzolanelle pyroclastic‐flow unit (365 ± 4 ka) and the emplacement of the Capo di Bove lava flow (277 ± 2 ka).

Progressive albitisation in the "Migmatite Creek" region, Weekeroo Inlier, Curnamona. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Albitisation is pervasive and intense in the Curnamona Province. Most FeO-Cu-Au-U-REE deposits are associated with sodic alteration or albitisation (alkaline alteration) worldwide.

First finding of Icelandic tephra in Czechia: Vedde Ash identified in palaeolake sediments of Stará Jímka

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, we report the first documented occurrence of the Icelandic Vedde Ash (VA) in the Bohemian Forest, identified within palaeolake sediments from Stará Jímka, Czechia, representing the first Icelandic tephra layer identified in Czechia.

SYNTHESIS OF ALBITE AT 210–240 °C

open access: yes, 1966
High temperature albite was synthesized at 210 and 240 °C from a mixture of kaolinite, NaCl, and Na2CO3, each run lasting about 63 days. Identification was made by X-ray diffraction, supplemented by electron microscopy.

Microbial Respiration in Subtropical Urban Soils Depending on Vegetation Type

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban vegetation combines invasive and introduced species with native relics, whose litter is the primary source of organic matter inputs in urban soils. Plant litter quality regulates both organic carbon (C) storage and microbial activity in urban soils.

Mechanical and creep properties of granitic minerals of albite, biotite, and quartz at elevated temperature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Fundamental mechanical and creep behavior of minerals at elevated temperatures is relevant to many subsurface exploration and resource recovery processes, yet remains largely elusive.

From Waste to Value: A Data‐Driven Framework for Sustainable Raw Materials Substitution in the Ceramic Industry

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing geopolitical risks, environmental pressures, and regulatory demands, the sustainable sourcing of raw materials has become a global priority for achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG

Pressure induced elastic softening in framework aluminosilicate-albite (NaAlSi3O8)

open access: yes, 2016
Albite (NaAlSi3O8) is an aluminosilicate mineral. Its crystal structure consists of 3-D framework of Al and Si tetrahedral units. We have used Density Functional Theory to investigate the high-pressure behavior of the crystal structure and how it affects

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

A comparison betweenab initio calculated and measured Raman spectrum of triclinic albite (NaAlSi3O8) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Albite is one of the most common minerals in the Earth’s crust, and its polymorphs can be found in rocks with different cooling histories. The characteristic spectrum of vibration of the albite mineral reflects its structural Si/Al ordering.
