Micro-organisms contribute to Earth's mineral deposits through a process known as bacteria-
induced mineral precipitation (BIMP). It is a complex phenomenon that can occur as a result …

Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is a process that has emerged
as an alternative and sustainable ground improvement approach in geotechnical and civil …

Primary dolomite is believed to be formed through cyanobacterial calcification, yet the
details and mechanisms of this process are not fully understood. In this study, a freshwater …

A key problem of how to distinguish between biotic and abiotic carbonate minerals in nature
and/or in the laboratory has confused researchers for some time. Although numerous …

Some species of sulphate‐reducing bacteria (SRB) are known to mediate the formation of
dolomite and Mg‐calcite. However, their exact role in the mineralization process remains …

The origin of sedimentary dolomite is a subject of long-standing enigma that still awaits
resolution. Previous studies have shown that room temperature synthesis of abiotic dolomite …

As a new engineering technique, enzyme induced calcite precipitation (EICP) has
demonstrated significant ecological benefits for bio-cementation and bioremediation, with …

Microbial-induced calcium precipitation (MICP) refers to the formation of calcium precipitates
induced by mineralization during microbial metabolism. MICP has been widely used as an …

The origin of dolomite is a long-standing enigma in sedimentary geology. It has been
proposed that microorganisms, especially anaerobic microorganisms, can overcome kinetic …

There is a lack of high-resolution records of hydroclimate variability in the Eastern
Mediterranean from the late glacial and early Holocene. More knowledge of the speed of …
