Massive formation of early diagenetic dolomite in the Ediacaran ocean: Constraints on the “dolomite problem” [PDF]
Significance Massive Paleozoic and Precambrian dolostone successions have long puzzled geologists in light of the kinetic barriers that inhibit low-temperature dolomite nucleation and precipitation (i.e., the “dolomite problem”).

Marine Anoxia and Ocean Acidification During the End‐Permian Extinction
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Thermodynamic and Kinetic Studies of Dolomite Formation: A Review
The “dolomite problem”, which has confused scientists for nearly two centuries, is an important fundamental geological problem. The mineralogical characteristics of carbonate minerals show that the dolomite structure consists of an ordered arrangement of

The Dolomite Problem: A Matter of Time
: Why is the mineral dolomite, CaMg(CO 3 ) 2 , abundant in ancient sedimentary rocks but scarce in modern rock-forming environments? What are the natural processes that lead to the characteristic Mg − Ca order in the dolomite structure?

Phanerozoic variation in dolomite abundance linked to oceanic anoxia
The abundance of dolomitic strata in the geological record contrasts with the general rarity of locations where dolomite forms today, a discrepancy that has long posed a problem for their interpretation.

In this work, dolomite filler was introduced into thermoplastic starch (TPS) matrix to form TPS-dolomite (TPS-DOL) biocomposites. TPS-DOL biocomposites were prepared at different dolomite loadings (1 wt%, 2 wt%, 3 wt%, 4 wt% and 5 wt%) and by using two ...
