Surface Forces Apparatus Measurements of Interactions between Rough and Reactive Calcite Surfaces. [PDF]
Langmuir, 2018 nm-Range forces acting between calcite surfaces in water affect macroscopic properties of carbonate rocks and calcite-based granular materials and are significantly influenced by calcite surface recrystallization. We suggest that the repulsive mechanical

Mg/Ca ratios in freshwater microbial carbonates: Thermodynamic, kinetic and vital effects [PDF]
, 2014 The ratio of magnesium to calcium (Mg/Ca) in carbonate minerals in an abiotic setting is conventionally assumed to be predominantly controlled by (Mg/Ca)solution and a temperature dependant partition coefficient. This temperature dependence suggests that
