Earthworms don't stop shaping soil processes when they die. A new study shows they can still help store carbon in the soil, even after death. "This is quite surprising," says lead author Tullia ...
Earth’s climate balance isn’t just governed by the slow weathering of silicate rocks, which capture carbon and stabilize temperature over eons. New research reveals that biological and oceanic ...
It almost seems too simple to be true. Silicate rock, during the natural process of breaking down in soil, draws carbon from the air – thus helping to absorb carbon emissions and potentially ...
Varaha, a carbon removal project developer, has announced the issuance of its first ‘Enhanced Rock Weathering’ (ERW) credits under the Puro.earth registry. A media statement said this marks the ...
Spreading farmers' fields with sand made from commonplace rocks could absorb vast quantities of planet-heating carbon from the atmosphere while sustaining and even boosting crop yields, climate ...
The relationship between weathering and fluvial erosion is important in shaping the incisions of bedrock channels. In rhyodacites from Paraná Volcanic Province, plucking and macro-abrasion processes ...
