Investigation of formation mechanism of tufa deposits by chemical breakdown of legacy paper mill sludge

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study reveals that legacy paper mill sludge can generate tufa deposits through calcium leaching and atmospheric CO2 interaction, acting as a carbon sink. The findings highlight its potential for low‐cost carbon sequestration and sustainable waste management.

Coupled authigenic Mg silicate and carbonate precipitation in saline lakes of the Salar de Atacama, Northern Chile

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
Sediments, unlithified and lithified microbial mats in the Salar de Atacama, are formed by similar pathways involving coupled precipitation of authigenic Mg silicate and calcium carbonate. Differences in products reflect differences in the initial distribution of organic biomass.

A critical role of heterotrophic bacteria in early diagenesis of carbonates through exopolymer degradation and calcium release

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
Exopolymeric substances (EPS) produced in the photic zone and surface sediments sequester calcium. Below the sediment surface, heterotrophic bacteria degrade EPS, releasing calcium resulting in carbonate precipitation. This process, which continues for millennia deep in the core, is an important sink for atmospheric carbon dioxide.

Microbial mediation and climatic control on dolomite precipitation in a hypersaline lake: Insights from Salinas Lake, southern Iberia

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
The cyclical nature of aridity and humidity led to the alternating deposition of dolomite‐rich and calcite‐rich sediments. During arid phases, the lake hydrology and growth of microbial mats under evaporative and hypersaline environment favors the precipitation of dolomite.

Domed‐rim microbial polygons and their preservation potential

The Depositional Record, Volume 12, Issue 1, February 2026.
Microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS) derive through interactions between minerals and microorganisms. We define a domed‐rim MISS, morphologically distinct from abiotic mud cracks and demonstrate its potential for long‐term preservation. These structures represent promising biosignatures in ancient environments on Earth and potentially Mars.
