The interactions between clay minerals and organic matter, specifically adsorption, are
widely recognized as a crucial mechanism for promoting the preservation of organic matter …

Organic matter (OM)-hosted pores, rather than mineral-hosted pores, are considered to be
the dominant contributors to total porosity and hydrocarbon storage in many organic-rich …

Ophiolite obductions in the tropics are coeval with Phanerozoic glaciations. The exposure of
mafic and ultramafic rocks is thought to trigger cooling by increasing global weatherability …

Abstract The High Arctic Large Igneous Province (HALIP) represents extensive Cretaceous
magmatism throughout the circum-Arctic borderlands and within the Arctic Ocean (eg, the …

Accurately assessing the temperature and hence the depth and timing of hydrocarbon
generation is a critical step in the characterization of a petroleum system. Clay catalysis is a …

Programmed pyrolysis experiments investigating the influence of the mineral matrix on
hydrocarbon generation from organic compounds have shown inconclusive results in past …

Among the proposed pathways of sequestration and progressive transformation of organic
matter (OM) during burial, the sorptive protection mechanism explains the strong …

Today the terrestrial surface drives biogeochemical cycles on Earth through chemical
weathering reactions mediated by the biological influence of soils. Prior to the expansion of …

Clay minerals play important roles in stabilizing organic matter (OM) in soils. In order to
investigate the nature of OM in association with clay minerals in peatland soils, the coarse (> …

New climate simulations using the HadCM3L model with a paleogeography of the Late
Jurassic (155.5 Ma) and proxy‐data corroborate that warm and wet tropical‐like conditions …
