Nature-based solutions like enhanced rock weathering and microbial enrichment could increase tree growth and boost carbon ...

Fluoride contamination in groundwater is a significant environmental and public health concern across many Asian countries, particularly India, China, ...

Since the early 1980s, Earth scientists have understood that erosion and weathering of rock slowly removes CO 2 from the ...

Scientists found that thawing permafrost can trigger increased rock weathering, a natural process that absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere. In some regions, this carbon uptake was strong enough to fully ...

Natural geological processes have been regulating Earth's climate for millions of years. Accelerated versions of these processes are now being promoted as technologies to draw down carbon from the ...

New findings on reverse weathering speed For decades, scientists believed reverse weathering was too slow to influence any environmental change on shorter time scales. However, these new studies ...

Two new publications remap the understanding of reverse weathering in the scientific community. The Dauphin Island Sea Lab’s Senior Marine Scientist, Dr. Jeffrey Krause, played a key role in both ...

Professor Arline T. Geronimus of the University of Michigan developed the theory of “weathering” while studying health complications of first-time mothers and identifying racial and economic ...

They look ordinary: gray with a hint of green, the sort of rock you may step over without thinking twice. But a pair of scientists say they just figured out a way of transforming these plain slabs of ...

On a banana plantation in rural Australia, a second-generation farming family spreads crushed volcanic rock between rows of ripening fruit. Eight thousand kilometers away, two young men in central ...
