We have a new preprint, led by @petrash.bsky.social, using wicked electrochemistry and really nifty microscopy to look at how manganese redox cycling and carboxyl groups play into the formation of protodolomite. 🧪⚒️

This isn’t ‘dialogue’; it’s the industry responsible for the crisis hijacking the negotiations meant to stop it

Incorrect. The Venezuelan (illegitimate) government is both the cause of migration and the enabler of drug trafficking schemes. Also, the Venezuelan regime is far from "stable"
Climate modeling suggests that if the Earth warms by 3 °C by the late 21st century, hurricane-induced power outages will increase significantly in northern Florida, Georgia, the mid-Atlantic, and the North Atlantic coast. In PNAS: https://ow.ly/Lu7I50Xgj05

The study integrates isotopic, geochemical, and petrographic data to reconstruct these paleoenvironmental conditions: "Drivers of episodic carbonate cementation during the Miocene Climatic Optimum in a paleolake of the Eger Rift"

These factors caused transient changes in pore water composition and redox conditions, favoring the precipitation of cements like ferroan dolomite and siderite during the Miocene Climatic Optimum
Episodic carbonate cementation in a Miocene Eger Rift paleolake was driven by a combination of climatic, hydrological, and biogeochemical factors, including increased humidity, weathering, and variable solute fluxes.
With this dude’s “peace deals,” sudden destruction is sure to come.
The buildings of the future might also be giant batteries. Improved electron-conducting carbon concrete can bear weight and store energy. A key to performance is the nanoscale connectivity of the electrode’s conductive carbon network. In PNAS: https://ow.ly/7rZa50XaBiC

Congratulations, you've just lived through the three hottest summers on record 🫠
But with greenhouse gas emissions still piling up in the atmosphere, those records probably won't stand for terribly long. 🧪

This is not a new approach; it dates back to psychiatric research conducted in the 1960s, when LSD was investigated for its potential in treating anxiety and end-of-life distress.

A post I’ve been putting together for 2 years - the Etymology of Earth Sci Words. So far about 500 terms - the initial goal before clicking the ‘Publish’ tab

There are >1,000,000 words in the English language
So my 500 words is a paltry sample. ⚒️🧪🌊
