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.

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

Architecture of crossed-lamellar bivalve shells: the southern giant clam (Tridacna derasa, Röding, 1798) [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Tridacna derasa shells show a crossed lamellar microstructure consisting of three hierarchical lamellar structural orders. The mineral part is intimately intergrown with 0.9 wt% organics, namely polysaccharides, glycosylated and unglycosylated proteins ...

High P-T Calcite-Aragonite Phase Transitions Under Hydrous and Anhydrous Conditions
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2022 The subduction of calcite into deep Earth and subsequent phase change are important for global carbon cycle. However, the study of the phase boundary between calcite and aragonite under high P-T conditions is insufficient due to sparse existing phase ...

Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021 Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

Crystals, 2020 Although biomineralization of minerals induced by microorganisms has been widely reported, the mechanisms of biomineralization and the characteristics of the biominerals precipitated needs to be studied further. In this study, Staphylococcus warneri YXY2,

Nacre Compared to Aragonite as a Bone Substitute: Evaluation of Bioactivity and Biocompatibility [PDF]
Materials Research, 2015 Aragonite is a metastable polymorph of calcium carbonate found in mollusk’s shells, appearing in tiles and prismatic columns, cemented in a protein matrix - mainly proteins - that acts as a framework on which the aragonite is nucleated forming nacre ...
