Comparative Assessment of Shell Structural, Mechanical, and Elemental Properties in Adult Acorn Barnacles

open access: yesDiversity
Balanomorph (acorn) barnacles are found throughout the world’s coastal oceans, and their success is dependent on a hard, mineralized, outer shell. Although macro-scale morphology of barnacle shells has been studied extensively, relatively little is known

A model study of enhanced oil recovery by flooding with aqueous surfactant solution and comparison with theory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
With the aim of elucidating the details of enhanced oil recovery by surfactant solution flooding, we have determined the detailed behavior of model systems consisting of a packed column of calcium carbonate particles as the porous rock, n-decane as the ...

Passive CO2 removal in urban soils:evidence from brownfield sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Management of urban brownfield land can contribute to significant removal of atmospheric CO2 through the development of soil carbonate minerals. However, the potential magnitude and stability of this carbon sink is poorly quantified as previous studies ...

The origin of carbon isotope vital effects in coccolith calcite

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Calcite microfossils are widely used to study climate and oceanography in Earth’s geological past. Coccoliths, readily preserved calcite plates produced by a group of single-celled surface-ocean dwelling algae called coccolithophores, have formed a ...

Cool Kitchen: Processing Starch and Eggshell Powder into Sustainable Coatings for Passive Daytime Cooling

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A food‐grade cooling composite made from starch and recycled eggshell powder offers a scalable, ultra‐low‐cost solution for passive daytime radiative cooling. Easily prepared using basic kitchen tools, this material empowers communities, even in areas with limited infrastructure, to stay cooler during worsening summer heat waves.

Using Element/Ca Response to Cleaning in Foraminifera From Endmember Depositional Environments to Infer Contaminants and Inform Pretreatment

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
Past ocean conditions are often reconstructed using the elemental composition of foraminiferal calcite. However, foraminiferal remains are often impacted by post‐depositional contaminants; thus, they require cleaning prior to element/Ca (El/Ca) analysis.

Marine bivalve geochemistry and shell ultrastructure from modern low pH environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
. Bivalve shells can provide excellent archives of past environmental change but have not been used to interpret ocean acidification events. We investigated carbon, oxygen and trace element records from different shell layers in the mussels Mytilus ...
