What if cropdusting could cool down the climate? What about rockdusting? Turns out sprinkling rock dust on fields may enhance ...

Throughout most of Earth's geological history, its paleoclimate has remained hospitable to life—largely thanks to continental ...

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 ...

Chemical weathering trends were detected within the silt/clay fractions of material taken from the 1750, 1852, and 1928 moraines, of Storbreen, Jotunheimen Mountains, southern Norway. In addition to ...

During the Ordovician period, the concentration of carbon dioxide in Earth's atmosphere was about eight times higher than today. It has been hard to explain why the climate cooled and why the ...

Natural rock weathering is a fundamental part of Earth’s carbon cycle but occurs over thousands of years. Enhancing this cycle by spreading fine volcanic rock on agricultural land is a form of ...

A new study found a dramatic increase in the chemical weathering rates of mined landscapes, which are melting away bedrock up to 45 times faster than unmined areas. The weathering has global ...
