It's one of the latest technologies for sequestering carbon: crush silicate rocks, add to crop soil, and let the rock dust ...

The natural rock weathering process, while effective in breaking down carbon and storing it within rocks over thousands of years, may not provide the immediate solution to combat climate change. With ...

Could blending of crushed rock with arable soil lower global temperatures? Researchers study global warming events from 40 and 56 million years ago to find answers. The Earth is getting hotter and ...

Magnesium isotope geochemistry has emerged as a pivotal tool in deciphering Earth’s surface and subsurface processes, particularly in the context of chemical weathering. By studying the subtle ...

Scientists have discovered that chemical weathering, a process in which carbon dioxide breaks down rocks and then gets trapped in sediment, can happen at a much faster rate than scientists previously ...

Simply sign up to the Climate change myFT Digest -- delivered directly to your inbox. Rocks have been helping to draw CO₂ out of the atmosphere for billions of years, but the process is too slow to ...

Two new publications remap the understanding of reverse weathering in the scientific community. The Dauphin Island Sea Lab’s Senior Marine Scientist, Dr. Jeffrey Krause, played a key role in both ...

The Earth is getting hotter and consequences have been made manifest this summer around the world. Looking back in geological history, global warming events are not uncommon: Around 56 million years ...
