ABSTRACT: Because aggregated diatoms sink rapidly through the water column, leaving little time for dissolution, aggregation influences the balance between recycling of biogenic silica (bSiO₂) and its ...

Mineral dissolution kinetics and surface reactivity are critical parameters in geochemical processes that influence both natural weathering and industrial applications. This field examines the rates ...

With increasing carbon dioxide from human activities, more acidic water is reaching the deep sea, dissolving some calcite-based sediments, say an international team of researchers. The seafloor has ...

Patients with gout receiving oral ULT showed similar rates of MSU crystal dissolution in the joints and tendons.
