The influence of normal stress and sliding velocity on the frictional behaviour of calcite at room temperature. Insights from laboratory experiments and microstructural observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The presence of calcite in and near faults, as the dominant material, cement, or vein fill, indicates that the mechanical behaviour of carbonate-dominated material likely plays an important role in shallow- and mid-crustal faulting. To better understand

State-of-the-Art Review of the Applicability and Challenges of Microbial-Induced Calcite Precipitation (MICP) and Enzyme-Induced Calcite Precipitation (EICP) Techniques for Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Applications

open access: yesCrystals, 2021
The development of alternatives to soil stabilization through mechanical and chemical stabilization has paved the way for the development of biostabilization methods.

Aragonite dissolution protects calcite at the seafloor

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
In the open ocean, calcium carbonates are mainly found in two mineral forms. Calcite, the least soluble, is widespread at the seafloor, while aragonite, the more soluble, is rarely preserved in marine sediments.

Apache Calcite: A Foundational Framework for Optimized Query Processing Over Heterogeneous Data Sources [PDF]

open access: yesSIGMOD Conference, 2018
Apache Calcite is a foundational software framework that provides query processing, optimization, and query language support to many popular open-source data processing systems such as Apache Hive, Apache Storm, Apache Flink, Druid, and MapD. The goal of

Refining the interpretation of lacustrine carbonate isotope records: Implications of a mineralogy-specific Lake Van case study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Oxygen and carbon isotope (δ18O and δ13C) data from bulk carbonates are widely applied proxies for temperature, the precipitation/evaporation ratio and productivity in lacustrine palaeohydrology and palaeoclimatology. In case of the terminal and alkaline

The Biology and Evolution of Calcite and Aragonite Mineralization in Octocorallia

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Fluid evolution in CM carbonaceous chondrites tracked through the oxygen isotopic compositions of carbonates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The oxygen isotopic compositions of calcite grains in four CM carbonaceous chondrites have been determined by NanoSIMS, and results reveal that aqueous solutions evolved in a similar manner between parent body regions with different intensities of ...

NaHCO3 as a carrier of CO2 and its enhancement effect on mineralization during hydrothermal alteration of basalt

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Reaction of carbon dioxide (CO2) with minerals to generate stable carbonates, also known as CO2 mineralization, has been regarded as one of the most promising methods for safe and permanent carbon storage.

Testing the impact of diagenesis on the delta O-18 and delta C-13 of benthic foraminiferal calcite from a sediment burial depth transect in the equatorial Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Stable oxygen and carbon isotope (δ18O and δ13C) values measured in foraminiferal calcite are one of the primary tools used in paleoceanography. Diagenetic recrystallisation of foraminiferal calcite can act to reset primary isotopic values but its ...

The impact of calcite impurities in clays containing kaolinite on their reactivity in cement after calcination

open access: yes, 2020
The use of supplementary cementitious materials as a partial replacement for Portland cement is the most effective way to reduce the carbon footprint of the concrete industry. Raw clays containing kaolinite (kaolin) are promising substitute materials. In
