UC researchers have devised a first-of-its-kind study to measure the carbon sequestered by enhanced rock weathering, a ...
Brad Carr, a UW associate research scientist in geology and geophysics, uses the Geoprobe instrument to sample the subsurface in the foothills of the southern Sierra Nevada in California. Carr ...
What if cropdusting could cool down the climate? What about rockdusting? Turns out sprinkling rock dust on fields may enhance ...
Geophysical surveys reveal subsurface weathering indirectly. The arrival of seismic energy, generated by a sledge hammer and recorded by geophones, is used to calculate seismic velocities. Slower ...
Sandstone landscapes, with their intricate forms and textures, offer an excellent window into the processes that shape our planet’s surface. The evolution of these formations is governed by a ...
Research led by the University of Wyoming shows that physical weathering is far more important than previously recognized in the breakdown of rock in mountain landscapes. Because it is difficult to ...
