CaCO 3 particles are widely employed in different fields due to their properties, such as
tunable size and morphology, tailored porosity and surface area, biocompatibility and …

Many crystallization processes of great importance, including frost heave, biomineralization,
the synthesis of nanomaterials, and scale formation, occur in small volumes rather than bulk …

All solid materials are created via nucleation. In this evolutionary process, nuclei form in
solution or at interfaces, expand by monomeric growth and oriented attachment, and …

Over the coming century humanity may need to find reservoirs to store several trillions of
tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from fossil fuel combustion, which would otherwise …

Microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a new foundation treatment
technology, which can improve the mechanical properties of soil. In this study, sand …

Humankind will need to remove hundreds of gigatons of carbon dioxide (CO2) from the
atmosphere by the end of the 21st century to keep global warming below 2° C within the …

Although seagrasses and marine macroalgae (macro‐autotrophs) play critical ecological
roles in reef, lagoon, coastal and open‐water ecosystems, their response to ocean …

The kinetics and mechanisms of nanoparticulate amorphous calcium carbonate (ACC)
crystallization to calcite, viavaterite, were studied at a range of environmentally relevant …

Building on the success of its 1993 predecessor, this second edition of Geochemistry,
Groundwater and Pollution has been thoroughly re-written, updated and extended to …

Crystals grow in supersaturated solutions. A mysterious counterexample is dolomite CaMg
(CO3) 2, a geologically abundant sedimentary mineral that does not readily grow at ambient …
