Over the coming century humanity may need to find reservoirs to store several trillions of
tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted from fossil fuel combustion, which would otherwise …

Carbon Dioxide removal from air (CDR) combined with permanent solid storage can be
accomplished via carbon mineralization in ultramafic rocks in at least four ways: 1. Surficial …

Soil treatment and improvement is commonly performed in the field of geotechnical
engineering. Methods and materials to achieve this such as soil stabilization and mixing with …

Abstract 7 billion tonnes of alkaline materials are produced globally each year as a product
or by-product of industrial activity. The aqueous dissolution of these materials creates high …

Consideration of soil as a living ecosystem offers the potential for innovative and sustainable
solutions to geotechnical problems. This is a new paradigm for many in geotechnical …

While many laboratory studies have focused on the short term effects of biochar addition to
soil), there have been comparatively few tracing its longer term effects in the field. This study …

Chemical weathering is an integral part of both the rock and carbon cycles and is being
affected by changes in land use, particularly as a result of agricultural practices such as …

Implementation of laboratory-tested biomediated soil improvement techniques in the field
depends on upscaling the primary processes and controlling their rates. Microbial-induced …

Requirements for research, practices and policies affecting soil management in relation to
global food security are reviewed. Managing soil organic carbon (C) is central because soil …

Soil inorganic carbon (SIC) is the largest pool (≈ 950 Pg of soil carbonate+ 1404 Pg of
bicarbonate in groundwater; ie, 1 Pg= 10 15 g= 1 gigaton) of the global carbon cycle at a …
