Stability assessment of calcium carbonate dissolution as a marine carbon dioxide removal mechanism
Frontiers in Marine ScienceOcean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) is a promising approach for removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere by increasing seawater alkalinity. However, the effectiveness of OAE depends on avoiding the precipitation of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) that would ...

A Code of Conduct for Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal Research
, 2023 Given the clear need to inform societal decision-making on the role marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) can play in solving the climate crisis, it is imperative that researchers begin to answer questions about its effectiveness and impacts. Yet overly hasty deployment of new ocean-based climate interventions risks harm to communities and ecosystems ...

Sedimentary Mercury Enrichments as a Tracer of Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 247-262., 2021 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.

Photo‐Switchable Molecular Module Programming PET Biodegradation in Aquatic Environments
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.We address the plastic durability paradox by integrating an itaconic acid–derived pyrrolidone module into polymer backbones. Sunlight in water triggers Norrish Type I ring‐opening and hydrophilization, enabling rapid biodegradation into nontoxic minerals.
