Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 Bacteria can facilitate the increase of Mg2+ content in biotic aragonite, but the molecular mechanisms of the incorporation of Mg2+ ion into aragonite facilitated by bacteria are still unclear and the dolomitization of aragonite grains is rarely reported.

Optimising a method for aragonite precipitation in simulated biogenic calcification media.
PLoS ONE, 2022 Resolving how factors such as temperature, pH, biomolecules and mineral growth rate influence the geochemistry and structure of biogenic CaCO3, is essential to the effective development of palaeoproxies. Here we optimise a method to precipitate the CaCO3

Polyamines Promote Aragonite Nucleation and Generate Biomimetic Structures
Advanced Science, 2023 Calcium carbonate biomineralization is remarkable for the ability of organisms to produce calcite or aragonite with perfect fidelity, where this is commonly attributed to specific anionic biomacromolecules.

Analysis of influencing factors on mineral morphology of active speleothem
Carsologica Sinica, 2022 Stalagmites, secondary mineral deposits forming in karst caves, record much paleo-climate and paleo-environment information. In stalagmites, the mineral forms of calcium carbonate are aragonite and calcite. It is considered that the properties of bedrock,

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

The Biology and Evolution of Calcite and Aragonite Mineralization in Octocorallia
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Octocorallia (class Anthozoa, phylum Cnidaria) is a group of calcifying corals displaying a wide diversity of mineral skeletons. This includes skeletal structures composed of different calcium carbonate polymorphs (aragonite and calcite). This represents

Marine Anoxia and Ocean Acidification During the End‐Permian Extinction
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 325-340., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
