Carbonate rocks host several large water and hydrocarbon reservoirs worldwide, some of them highly heterogeneous involving complex pore systems. Pre-salt reservoirs in the Santos Basin off the south-east coast of Brazil, ...

Solid carbonates can be formed by indirect mineral carbonation using the pH swing method for CO2 storage. It occurs at low temperatures and pressures in four stages: acid dissolution, purification, carbonation, and recovery. ...

The unsaturated hydraulic properties provide important theoretical and practical information about fluid flow in soils and rocks for a range of soil, environmental and engineering applications. In this study we used the ...

The pore structure of many carbonate formations is known to be very complex and heterogeneous. Heterogeneity is manifested by the presence of different types, sizes, and shapes of pores resulting from sedimentation and ...

Paleontologists have long stressed the need to know how sampling the fossil record might influence our knowledge of the evolution of life. Here, we combine fossil occurrences of North American marine invertebrates from the ...

The mantle section of the Advocate ophiolite (Newfoundland, Canada) contains unique outcrops of listvenite (magnesite-quartz), antigorite- and quartz-bearing talc-magnesite rock, and carbonated antigorite-serpentinite. ...
