Theoretical petrology [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
The central issues in petrology have remained remarkably unchanged in the last 50 years. In igneous petrology, the focus is on understanding the nature and cause of diversity in igneous rocks: on identifying primary magma types and constraints on the ...

Bioenergy Cropping Reduces the Spatiotemporal Scaling of Soil Bacterial Biodiversity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Consistent with patterns observed in plant and animal communities, soil bacterial communities exhibit significant species–time–area and phylogenetic–time–area relationships independent of nested structure. Bioenergy cropping significantly reduces the spatiotemporal scaling rates, particularly in sandy loam soils.

Assessment of formation brine salinity, pressure and temperature in selected structures in eastern Denmark and implications for CO2 storage

open access: yesGEUS Bulletin
CO2 storage presents new risks and challenges, where the properties of formation water play an important role. These challenges include reduced injectivity and storage capacity due to salt precipitation, viscous fingering caused by viscosity contrasts ...

A chironomid-based reconstruction of summer temperatures in NW Iceland since AD 1650 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Few studies currently exist that aim to validate a proxy chironomid-temperature reconstruction with instrumental temperature measurements. We used a reconstruction from a chironomid percentage abundance data set to produce quantitative summer temperature

“Hidden” Landscape of Prehistoric Burial Monuments: The Use of Remote Sensing in the Detection of Neolithic Long Barrows in Bohemia (Czech Republic)

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Neolithic long barrows are among the earliest monumental structures in Europe, yet in many parts of Central Europe their surface expression has been largely erased by long‐term agricultural activity. This study evaluates the potential of integrated remote sensing approaches for identifying and contextualizing long barrows and associated ...

An Idea to Explore: From How to Why: Using Evolutionary Biochemistry to Inspire Biochemistry Education

open access: yesBiochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Traditional biochemistry instruction often emphasizes mechanistic detail, that is, how molecules and pathways function, without equally addressing why they have their present forms. This fact‐centered approach can leave students overwhelmed and disconnected from the broader scientific narrative.

Surface hydration‐induced damage in tight oil‐bearing sandy conglomerate reservoirs

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
A series of techniques such as X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive spectroscopy, conductivity tests, and infrared thermal imaging were used. The key findings are the identification of a two‐stage surface hydration process and the elucidation of the effects of various minerals and elements on the hydration process ...

Towards a fully data-driven prospectivity mapping methodology: A case study of the Southeastern Churchill Province, Québec and Labrador

open access: yesArtificial Intelligence in Geosciences, 2021
Mineral exploration campaigns are financially risky. Several state-of-the-art methods have been developed to mitigate the risk, including predictive modelling of mineral prospectivity using principal component analysis (PCA) and geographic information ...
