To geochemist Greg Rau, the future looks like a seaside power plant. More specifically, it looks like a biomass combustion plant that’s actually carbon-negative because the CO2 emissions are dissolved ...

The deflation of the upland limestone landscape by slow solution weathering is demonstrated at Norber in the Yorkshire Dales. Limestone is dissolved very slowly over a period of time. Erratics at ...

Researchers from the University of California, Santa Cruz (UCSC), and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) have invented a new method for controlling the emission of carbon dioxide from power ...

Researchers have investigated erosion in the different kinds of limestone in the Western Wall at the foot of Jerusalem's Temple Mount. Stones made up of large crystals were almost unchanged in 2000 ...

SEVERAL distinct forms of weathering are met with in the Sunderland Magnesian Limestone, two of which I will describe, leaving two others for another occasion. In one of them the prevailing rod, or ...

LIVERMORE, Calif. – Using seawater and calcium to remove carbon dioxide (CO2) in a natural gas power plant's flue stream, and then pumping the resulting calcium bicarbonate in the sea, could be ...

Limestone Pavements are bare limestone rock surfaces composed of slabs of rock (clints), separated by variable-width vertical cracks (grikes) . These grikes have developed by weathering and enhanced ...

Israeli scientists are studying a natural process that has balanced Earth’s climate for millions of years by removing carbon dioxide from the air through interactions between rain, rocks, and water.

Visitors to the Western Wall in Jerusalem can see that some of its stones are extremely eroded. This is good news for people placing prayer notes in the wall's cracks and crevices, but presents a ...
