Standard transition aluminas. Electron microscopy studies
The aim of this paper is to present the results of characterization of the particle shapes of six standard transition aluminas samples using transmission and scanning electron microscopies; selected area electron diffraction, in parallel with X-ray ...

Data arc presented showing the changes in physical properties which occur during the calcination of Bayer-process gibbsite at temperatures up to 1400°C. The various stages of the calcination were examined using differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction, low-temperature nitrogen adsorption, optical and electron microscopy, and particle-size ...

The master molecule that built biology: How water shaped the chemistry of life
Abstract The deep entanglement of biomolecular structure and function with aqueous systems supports the view that water actively sculpted both molecules and processes during the origins of life and continues to constrain evolution today. Nature's rules of biochemistry and biophysics have survived for nearly 4 billion years.

The Carajás Province, located in the southeastern Amazon, hosts some of the world’s largest high-grade iron deposits. Despite their economic importance, the processes linking lateritic weathering and iron enrichment remain incompletely understood.

A soil sensing mechanism to reach carbon flux at a country scale
Abstract Soil is the largest terrestrial carbon reservoir and can be a source or sink of CO2 for the atmosphere, depending on management practices. CO2 emissions from the soil surface (FCO2) are directly related to the biological and physicochemical soil properties. Our objective was to estimate and spatialize the net ecosystem production (NEP) for the

Abstract Micrometric phyllosilicate films along fault slip surfaces (SSs) can drastically reduce friction, yet they are unexpected in clay‐poor carbonate platforms. We inquire how a major carbonate‐hosted, seismogenic strike‐slip fault can develop weak slip interfaces and undergo dynamic weakening despite an intrinsically strong host rock.

ABSTRACT Deciphering the time milestones of clay formation is crucial for modeling the evolution of major geological systems near the Earth's surface. In the present study, kaolinite samples collected along four vertical profiles within a Gleysol‐Ferralsol‐Podzol soil toposequence near São Gabriel da Cachoeira, NW Amazon Basin (Brazil) are dated using ...

ABSTRACT Increasing phosphorus (P) fertilizer use efficiency from bio‐based waste products (i.e., recycled amendments) requires promoting a larger proportion of bioavailable P in soil for plant uptake. Therefore, this study aimed to elucidate how recycled amendment P solubility and movement vary when interfaced with soils of contrasting characteristics.
