dragon: A New Tool for Exploring Redox Evolution Preserved in the Mineral Record

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The flow of energy and elements between the geosphere and biosphere can be traced through changing redox chemistry of Earth’s surface. Deep-time trends in the mineral record, including mineral age and elemental composition, reveal a dynamic history of ...

Light scattering and absorption properties of dust particles retrieved from satellite measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We use the radiative transfer model and chemistry transport model to improve our retrievals of dust optical properties from satellite measurements. The optical depth and absorbing optical depth of mineral dust can be obtained from our improved retrieval ...

Removal of diesel pollution by biochar - support in water remediation [PDF]

open access: yesHemijska Industrija, 2021
Water contaminated with diesel oil represents one of the greatest challenges in waste water management. Water soluble fraction (WSF) is of particular interest because of its toxicity to aquatic organisms and discharge regulations set by environmental ...

Spin-Frustrated Pyrochlore Chains in the Volcanic Mineral Kamchatkite (KCu3OCl(SO4)2) [PDF]

open access: yesPhysics and Chemistry of Minerals, 45(7), 655-668 (2018), 2017
Search of new frustrated magnetic systems is of a significant importance for physics studying the condensed matter. The platform for geometric frustration of magnetic systems can be provided by copper oxocentric tetrahedra (OCu4) forming the base of crystalline structures of copper minerals from Tolbachik volcanos in Kamchatka.

Soil bacterial communities of a calcium-supplemented and a reference watershed at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF), New Hampshire, USA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Soil Ca depletion because of acidic deposition-related soil chemistry changes has led to the decline of forest productivity and carbon sequestration in the northeastern USA. In 1999, acidic watershed (WS) 1 at the Hubbard Brook Experimental Forest (HBEF),

Carbon mineralization and microbial activity in agricultural topsoil and subsoil as regulated by root nitrogen and recalcitrant carbon concentrations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Aims Mechanisms of subsoil carbon sequestration from deep-rooted plants are elusive, but may contribute to climate change mitigation. This study addressed the role of root chemistry on carbon mineralization and microbiology in a temperate agricultural ...

Chemical composition of gahnite and degree of pegmatitic fractionation in the Borborema Pegmatitic Province, northeastern Brazil

open access: yesAnais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2007
Gahnite electron probe microanalyses from three pegmatites (Mirador, Capoeira and Quintos) of the Borborema Pegmatitic Province in northeastern Brazil allowed to determine molar compositions ranging from 86.22 to 95.41 mol% gahnite (ZnAl2O4), 1.51 to 6 ...

Quantum Magnetism in Minerals [PDF]

open access: yesAdv. Phys. 67, 149-252 (2018), 2018
The discovery of magnetism by the ancient Greeks was enabled by the natural occurrence of lodestone -- a magnetized version of the mineral magnetite. Nowadays, natural minerals continue to inspire the search for novel magnetic materials with quantum-critical behavior or exotic ground states such as spin liquids. The recent surge of interest in magnetic

Nano dimensional hybrid organo-clay Langmuir-Blodgett films [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Physical Chemistry 3(3) (2013) 322-332, 2014
Clay mineral particles are interesting nanosized building blocks due to their high aspect ratio and the chemical properties. The main interest in this nanosized building blocks results essentially from the colloidal size and the permanent structural charge of the particles.
