Long-time evolution of sequestered CO$_2$ in porous media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
CO$_2$ sequestration in subsurface reservoirs is important for limiting atmospheric CO$_2$ concentrations. However, a complete physical picture able to predict the structure developing within the porous medium is lacking.

Population and herbarium genomics provide a comprehensive framework for a revision of Microcoleus (Cyanobacteria)

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Microcoleus is a cosmopolitan, filamentous cyanobacterium and a key component of biological soil crusts—complex microbial communities essential for primary production in diverse terrestrial environments. Here, we performed a taxonomic revision of several species of Microcoleus based on a large population genomic dataset.

Physical and mechanical appraisal of two carbonatic stones widely used in the architectural heritage of eastern Andalusia, Spain

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2011
We present a detailed characterization of two calcareous stones from Andalusia (Southern Spain), namely Escúzar calcarenite and Olivillo travertine. Both materials can replace two stones extensively used in the architectural heritage of Andalusia, i.e ...

Rome’s urban history inferred from Pb-contaminated waters trapped in its ancient harbor basins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Heavy metals from urban runoff preserved in sedimentary deposits record long-term economic and industrial development via the expansion and contraction of a city’s infrastructure. Lead concentrations and isotopic compositions measured in the sediments of

Hydrological reserve "Travertine springs"

open access: yesProceedings of the State Natural History Museum, 2023
Travertine springs (petrifying springs) are unique natural formations formed by a complex interaction of abiotic and biotic factors, which cause the precipitation of calcium carbonates and magnesium from solutions saturated with corresponding hydrocarbonates.

Bio‐mediated cementation of supratidal beach sediments associated with groundwater springs

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The formation of beachrock, sensu stricto, via carbonate precipitation in the intertidal zone is widespread throughout the tropics and subtropics. While cementation of supratidal beach sediments has also been noted in several locations, it has received much less attention.

Variation characteristics and paleoclimatic/environmental implications of Mg/Ca, Sr/Ca, and Ba/Ca ratios in endogenic travertine from Baishuitai, Yunnan Province

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica
Reconstructing high-resolution paleoclimate and environmental records is of great significance for deepening our understanding of the mechanisms driving global climate change and for predicting future climate trends.

Analysis of a travertine system controlled by the transpressional activity of the Alhama de Murcia fault: The Carraclaca site, eastern Betic Cordillera, Spain

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Continental carbonates, such as travertines and tufas, formed from CO2-rich groundwater degassing as it emerges at the Earth’s surface, are often associated with major crustal-scale faults.

A multi-scale approach to determine the REV in complex carbonate rocks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Complex porous carbonates display heterogeneity at different scales, influencing their reservoir properties (e.g. porosity) especially since different porosity types may exist on different spatial scales.

Spherulite in the modern aragonitic travertine stromatolite has a calcite core with exopolymers

open access: yesSedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Spherulites are spherical to ellipsoidal particles formed by various crystalline substances and can be abiotically synthesised in the laboratory. Among various spherulite types, spherulites composed of calcium carbonate are also found in various natural environments, but their abiotic or biotic origins are still controversial.
