Woods Hole MA (SPX) Feb 13, 2024 - Studying a rock is like reading a book. The rock has a story to tell, says Frieder Klein, an associate scientist in the Marine Chemistry and Geochemistry Department at the Woods Hole Oceanographic I
<p>•This study reports widespread mineral carbonation of mantle rocks in an oceanic transform fueled by magmatic degassing of CO<sub>2</sub>. </p> <p>•The findings describe a previously unknown part of the geological carbon cycle in transform faults that represent one of the three principal plate boundaries on Earth. </p> <p>•The confluence of tectonically exhumed mantle rocks and CO<sub>2</sub>-rich alkaline basalt formed through limited extents of melting characteristic of the St. Paul&rsqu...
NASA study finds that high oxygen planets may have evolved advanced civilizations while other new research links CO2 levels to liquid water and possibly life.
Scientists at MIT, the University of Birmingham, and elsewhere say that astronomers’ best chance of finding liquid water, and even life on other planets, is to look for the absence, rather than the presence, of a chemical feature in their atmospheres
If the James Webb Space Telescope detects depleted carbon dioxide in a planet's atmosphere, that could indicate water.
