SR-FTiR microscopy and FTIR imaging in the earth sciences [PDF]
During the last decades, several books have been devoted to the application of spectroscopic methods in mineralogy. Several short courses and meetings have addressed particular aspects of spectroscopy, such as the analysis of hydrous components in minerals and Earth materials.

Mineralogy and Surface Composition of Asteroids [PDF]
Methods to constrain the surface mineralogy of asteroids have seen considerable development during the last decade with advancement in laboratory spectral calibrations and validation of our interpretive methodologies by spacecraft rendezvous missions. This has enabled the accurate identification of several meteorite parent bodies in the main asteroid ...

This chapter begins with some basic concepts regarding the structure and mineralogy of rocky planets, how to read and construct ternary diagrams, and why partial melting occurs when plate tectonics is operative. Partial melting is a key concept in that it governs crust and core formation, which in turn control mineralogy.

Can soil biology tests improve phosphorus and potassium corn fertilizer recommendations?
Abstract Integrating soil health (SH) biological properties with soil fertility (SF) evaluations offers a unique opportunity to potentially refine fertilizer recommendations. The objectives of this research included: (a) evaluating current University of Missouri P and K fertilizer recommendations for corn (Zea mays L.) and (b) assess whether SH ...

Microstructure, micro-inclusions, and mineralogy along the EGRIP (East Greenland Ice Core Project) ice core – Part 2: Implications for palaeo-mineralogy [PDF]
Impurities in polar ice do not only allow the reconstruction of past atmospheric aerosol concentrations but also influence the physical properties of the ice.

Metal sulphides are the most important group of ore minerals. As shown in this brief introduction, much is known about their compositions, crystal structures, phase relations and paragenesis. Much less is known about their surface chemistry and, in particular, about their biogeochemistry, and about the formation and behaviour of ‘nanoparticle ...

Bacterial mineralization treatments can be effective, nontoxic, environmentally friendly, and chemically compatible with fossil heritage. However, accurate monitoring should be carried out to detect bacteria viability during and after treatments. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) assay is proposed as a fast, affordable, portable, and easy‐to‐use system for ...
