Weathering microenvironments on feldspar surfaces: implications for understanding fluid-mineral reactions in soils [PDF]
, 2008 The mechanisms by which coatings develop on weathered grain surfaces, and their potential impact on rates of fluid-mineral interaction, have been investigated by examining feldspars from a 1.1 ky old soil in the Glen Feshie chronosequence, Scottish ...

Rock-eating mycorrhizas: their role in plant nutrition and biogeochemical cycles [PDF]
, 2008 A decade ago, tunnels inside mineral grains were found that were likely formed by hyphae of ectomycorrhizal (EcM) fungi. This observation implied that EcM fungi can dissolve mineral grains. The observation raised several questions on the ecology of these

Reservoir theory for studying the geochemical evolution of soils [PDF]
, 2010 Linking mineral weathering rates measured in the laboratory to those measured at the landscape scale is problematic. In laboratory studies, collections of minerals are exposed to the same weathering environment over a fixed amount of time.

Geochemical Negative Emissions Technologies: Part I. Review
Frontiers in Climate, 2022 Over the previous two decades, a diverse array of geochemical negative emissions technologies (NETs) have been proposed, which use alkaline minerals for removing and permanently storing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2).

Alkaline Mineral Soil Amendment: A Climate Change ‘Stabilization Wedge’?
Energies, 2019 Extreme climate change due to heat-trapping gases, especially carbon dioxide, necessitates its mitigation. In this context, the carbon dioxide sequestration technology of enhanced weathering has for years been investigated, with a possible implementation

The environmental controls on efficiency of enhanced rock weathering in soils
Scientific Reports, 2023 Enhanced rock weathering (ERW) in soils is a promising carbon removal technology, but the realistically achievable efficiency, controlled primarily by in situ weathering rates of the applied rocks, is highly uncertain.

The Weathering Microbiome of an Outcropping Granodiorite
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Microorganisms have long been recognized for their capacity to catalyze the weathering of silicate minerals. While the vast majority of studies on microbially mediated silicate weathering focus on organotrophic metabolism linked to nutrient acquisition ...
