Molecular acclimation of Halobacterium salinarum to halite brine inclusions [PDF]
Halophilic microorganisms have long been known to survive within the brine inclusions of salt crystals, as evidenced by the change in color for salt crystals containing pigmented halophiles. However, the molecular mechanisms allowing this survival has remained an open question for decades.

Distribution and habitability of (meta)stable brines on present-day Mars [PDF]
Special Regions on Mars are defined as environments able to host liquid water that meets certain temperature and water activity requirements that allow known terrestrial organisms to replicate, and therefore could be habitable. Such regions would be a concern for planetary protection policies owing to the potential for forward contamination (biological

Pore-Scale Visualization of Hydrogen Storage in a Sandstone at Subsurface Pressure and Temperature Conditions: Trapping, Dissolution and Wettability [PDF]
The global commitment to achieve net-zero has led to increasing investment towards the production and usage of green hydrogen (H2).However, the massive quantity needed to match future demand will require new storage facilities. Underground storage of H2 is a potentially viable solution, but poses unique challenges due to the distinctive physical and ...

Nanofiltration Process for Enhanced Treatment of RO Brine Discharge
Brine discharge of reverse osmosis (RO) desalination plants represents a challenge for both inland and coastal desalination plants. Zero-liquid discharge (ZLD) can be accomplished by using additional stages of RO, which can recycle that brine water, but ...

Feasibility of characterizing subsurface brines on Ceres by electromagnetic sounding [PDF]
The ice-rich dwarf planet Ceres is the largest object in the main asteroid belt and is thought to have a brine or mud layer at a depth of tens of kilometers. Furthermore, recent surface deposits of brine-sourced material imply shallow feeder structures such as sills or dikes. Inductive sounding of Ceres can be performed using the solar wind as a source,

Brine-driven destruction of clay minerals in Gale crater, Mars
Modified clay minerals on Mars Sedimentary rocks exposed in Gale crater on Mars contain extensive clay minerals. Bristow et al. analyzed drill samples collected by the Curiosity rover as it climbed up sedimentary layers in the crater. They found evidence
