Hydrated magnesium silicate materials are promising binding materials for applications as
alternative cementitious materials and may offer a lower carbon footprint than conventional …

The porosity and permeability of sandstone and carbonate reservoirs (known as reservoir
quality) are essential inputs for successful oil and gas resource exploration and exploitation …

Although pH is a fundamental property of Earth's oceans, critical to our understanding of
seawater biogeochemistry, its long-timescale geologic history is poorly constrained. We …

The cyclic distribution of various types of carbonates and Mg-clays in early Cretaceous rift-
sag phase lacustrine carbonates from the subsurface of the South Atlantic provides an …

For the first four billion years of Earth's history, climate was marked by apparent stability and
warmth despite the Sun having lower luminosity. Proposed mechanisms for maintaining an …

Abstract The Glen Torridon (GT) region in Gale crater, Mars is a region with strong clay
mineral signatures inferred from orbital spectroscopy. The CheMin X‐ray diffraction (XRD) …

The existence of stabilizing feedbacks within Earth's climate system is generally thought to
be necessary for the persistence of liquid water and life. Over the course of Earth's history …

Phyllosilicates, one of the five major structural types of silicates, have highly variable
structures and very complex chemistry. This manuscript reports the first comprehensive …

Jupiter's icy moon, Europa, harbors a subsurface liquid water ocean; the prospect of this
ocean being habitable motivates further exploration of the moon with the upcoming NASA …

Two magnesium silicate hydrates (MSH) with structural magnesium/silicon ratios of
0.57±0.08 and 1.07±0.13 were synthesized at room temperature, with one year of synthesis …
