Direct Visualization of Single Ions in the Stern Layer of Calcite

Jean-François Molinari, Francesco Stellacci, Kislon Voitchovsky, Peter Spijker, Maria Ricci

Calcite is among the most abundant minerals on earth and plays a central role in many environmental and geochemical processes. Here we used amplitude modulation atomic force microscopy (AFM) operated in a particular regime to visualize single ions close to ...

Optimizing turbine withdrawal from a tropical reservoir for improved water quality in downstream wetlands

Alfred Johny Wüest

Large reservoirs in the tropics act as efficient nutrient traps and often develop hypoxic conditions in the hypolimnion. Both effects may have severe implications for aquatic ecosystems, such as limited primary production in downstream riparian agriculture ...

Sediment accumulation and carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus deposition in the large tropical reservoir Lake Kariba (Zambia/Zimbabwe)

Alfred Johny Wüest

Large dams affect the aquatic continuum from land to ocean by accumulating particles and nutrients in their reservoirs. We examined sediment cores to quantify sediment, organic carbon (OC), nitrogen (N), and phosphorous (P) accumulation, and to examine his ...

Interaction between BaCO3 and OPC/BFS composite cements at 20 degrees C and 60 degrees C

A BaCO3 slurry, containing radioactive C-14, is produced during the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel. This slurry is encapsulated in a Portland-blastfurnace slag composite cement. The effect of BaCO3 on the hydration of OPC and Portland-blastfurnace slag ...

Inorganic Geochemistry and Redox Dynamics in Bank Filtration Settings

Janet Gordon Hering

Bank filtration induces flow of surface water through a hydraulically connected aquifer by excess pumping from a production well in the aquifer. This review presents the four main geochemical processes relevant for inorganic geochemistry, with a focus on i ...

Biological reduction of chlorinated solvents: Batch-scale geochemical modeling

David Andrew Barry, Clare Robinson

Simulation of biodegradation of chlorinated solvents in dense non-aqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) source zones requires a model that accounts for the complexity of processes involved and that is consistent with available laboratory studies. This paper describ ...
