Abstract Rincon de Parangueo (RP) is a Quaternary maar crater located in the Michoacan‐Guanajuato Volcanic Field in central Mexico. Like other volcanic craters in the region, the central part was occupied by an endorheic lacustrine system. As a consequence of extensive groundwater extraction, the perennial lake started a gradual desiccation process and

Bacteria‐Induced Calcite Precipitation for Engineering and Environmental Applications
Numerous engineering and environmental issues can be resolved using the bacterial‐induced calcite precipitation (BCP), which has the potential to be environmentally friendly, sustainable, and economical. In BCP, bacterial enzymes used substrates and divalent cations to bind negatively charged ions to the bacterial surface and produce biocementation ...
