Ex-situ mineral carbonation: resources, process and environmental assessment (Carmex project) [PDF]

, 2013
This article presents the main results of the Carmex project (2009-2012), whose purpose was to review the feasibility of ex-situ mineral carbonation in terms of resource availability, performance of the aqueous mineral carbonation process and life cycle ...

Illegal Gold Mining in the Brazilian Amazon: Environmental Degradation in Yanomami Indigenous Lands, and Regulatory Failures

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Illegal gold mining has emerged as a major sustainability threat in the Amazon, eroding Indigenous rights, forest integrity, and climate mitigation efforts. This study examines how international market incentives relate to the expansion of illegal mining and associated deforestation within the Yanomami Indigenous Territory (YIT) from 2008 to ...

Connecting with tephras: principles, functioning, and applications of tephrochronology in Quaternary science [PDF]

, 2013
Tephrochronology is a unique method for linking and dating geological, palaeoecological, palaeoclimatic, or archaeological sequences or events. The method relies firstly on stratigraphy and the law of superposition, which apply in any study that connects

Exploring Interactive Effects of Arsenic and Selenium Exposure on Larval Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arsenic contamination in aquatic ecosystems is a major environmental concern. Selenium (Se) helps mitigate oxidative stress and hence could reduce the toxic effects of arsenic. However, Se can also be toxic at high concentrations. Given that these metalloids commonly co‐occur in the environment, there is a pressing need for further research ...

A Low‐Power Radioisotope XRF Spectrometer for Detection of Light Elements on Planetary Missions

X-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Current X‐ray spectrometers for in situ geochemical analysis on planetary missions typically rely either on X‐ray tubes, which demand electrical power and add mass and thermal complexity, or on alpha particle X‐ray spectrometers (APXS) that use rare 244Cm$$ {}^{244}\mathrm{Cm} $$ sources, and come with severe concerns on radiation safety and ...

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.

The pristine precursor of Andean-type magmatism preserved in magma mingling zones

Scientific Reports
Intermediate magma compositions have been postulated to be parental to Andean-type magmatism in the recent years. Geochemical and experimental methods have allowed the modelling of a hypothetical parental composition that accounts for the major element ...

Brittle Structural Control and Fluid Progress of the Jinqingding Gold Deposit: Implications for Epizonal Gold Mineralization

Acta Geologica Sinica - English Edition, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Jinqingding gold deposit in eastern Jiaodong is a significant gold mineralization within the Muping–Rushan metallogenic belt. This study integrates structural analysis and trace element geochemistry of sulphides to elucidate ore‐controlling mechanisms and metallogenic models.

High-precision tephrostratigraphy : tracking the time-varying eruption pulse of Mt. Taranaki, North Island, New Zealand : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Earth Science, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2017
In this research it was proposed that a more robust record of volcanic activity for Mt. Taranaki (New Zealand) could be derived from tephras (pyroclastic fall deposits) within cores from several lakes and peatlands across a 120o arc, NE-SE of the ...
