Calcium carbonate is an important and often dominant component of marine sediments. This
is reflected by the observation that about 20% by volume of Phanerozoic (0-547 Ma; Ma) …

The dissolution rates of olivine have been considered by a plethora of studies in part due to
its potential to aid in carbon storage and the ease in obtaining pure samples for laboratory …

This book presents an introduction to the chemistry of the solid-water interface. Stressing
surface chemical principles that can be applied in the geochemistry of natural waters, soils …

An indispensable primer and reference textbook, the third edition of Geochemical and
Biogeochemical Reaction Modeling carries the reader from the field's origins and theoretical …

In this paper, we discuss the recent kinetic work on water-rock interactions. Standard activity-
activity diagrams are reinterpreted, using a mass transfer kinetic model and recent data on …

Introduction to Geomicrobiology is a timely and comprehensive overview of how microbial
life has affected Earth's environment through time. It shows how the ubiquity of …

Organic acids and their anions (for brevity we shall use the term “acids” to include both) may
affect mineral weathering rates by at least three mechanisms: by changing the dissolution …

Land plants and their associated microbiota directly affect silicate mineral weathering in
several ways: by generation of chelating ligands, by modifying pH through production of CO …

Geochemical reaction modeling plays an increasingly vital role in several areas of
geoscience, from environmental geochemistry and petroleum geology to the study of …

The dissolution behaviour of metal oxides has applications in many scientific fields, each
with its own jargon and methodological approach. Any scientist interested in this subject …
