Minerals are widely assumed to protect organic matter (OM) from degradation in the
environment, promoting the persistence of carbon in soil and sediments. In this Review, we …

The use of calcined clays as supplementary cementitious materials provides the opportunity
to significantly reduce the cement industry's carbon burden; however, use at a global scale …

Soil is the largest terrestrial reservoir of organic carbon and is central for climate change
mitigation and carbon-climate feedbacks. Chemical and physical associations of soil carbon …

The capacity of soils to store organic carbon represents a key function of soils that is not only
decisive for climate regulation but also affects other soil functions. Recent efforts to assess …

Limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) has gained attention in the research paradigm, and
useful data is available in scattered form, necessitates comprehensive review to provide …

Improved quantification of the factors controlling soil organic matter (SOM) stabilization at
continental to global scales is needed to inform projections of the largest actively cycling …

Soil organic matter (SOM) accumulation is different in certain soil groups with differences in
parent material, degree of weathering and mineral composition. These differences are …

The bulk of the cement industry's environmental burden is from the calcareous source.
Calcium is mostly available naturally as limestone (CaCO 3), where almost half of the mass …

As an available and high-quality supplementary cementing materials (SCMs), Consumption
of Metakaolin (MK) was proposed by many research to replace Portland cement to improve …

We review the major features of desert dust outbreaks that are relevant to the assessment of
dust impacts upon human health. Our ultimate goal is to provide scientific guidance for the …
