Auditors can’t save carbon offsets The theory behind carbon offset projects is appealing: Instead of an organization cutting its own emissions, it can fund lower-cost carbon-reducing projects elsewhere to “offset” its emissions. The re...

A novel biomarker for deep-time methanogenesis – perspectives from nickel isotope fractionation in modern microbialites Activity of methanogenic archaea on early Earth is mainly deduced based on modern processes and supported by the carbon isotope record (δ13Ccarb). Rec…

Defining ultra-slow-growing extremophilic microorganisms as aeonophiles - Nature Microbiology In environments like the deep subsurface, microorganisms with long doubling times can remain metabolically active for millions of years — we propose referring to this class of extremophile as aeonophi...

nice initiative!
#aeonophiles

this is exactly the limit of this model and i'm interested to see how this can be solved. Should we hunt for reviewer in similar fashion? Should we, as reviewers decide to spend x hours a week/month on such a platform ? should there be levels of reviewing? reviewer vs commentors vs moderators ?

Hi new followers! 👋
I’m a sedimentologist studying Earth surface processes and how (paleo)climate shapes our planet. 🌍 In a recent study, we found that climate drove repeated advances of a deltaic system ~51 million years ago, during Earth’s hothouse conditions. 🔥 (1/4)
