There might be loss of US glaciers at 2070, it will result in many disturbances ecosystem will be affected and water source will shrink. #geochemchat

Did you know that for the past few years seafloor spread has been slowing down? This could affect the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Therefore fewer of these gases will be expelled into the atmosphere. #geochemchat

A recent experiment suggests that iron oxides may be forming far below earth's surface, which could lead to earth's core rusting. #geochemchat

Check how the increase in biomass burning is impacting the climate change, our health and the environment. #geochemchat

Recent study shows that climate change is speeding sound transmission in oceans. As many aquatic animals uses sound to communicate with each other, changing sound speed can impact their ability to feed, fight etc. #geochemchat

Scientists have been struggling to explain "why seashells mineral forms differently in seawater".The recent study shows that the reason behind that is due to ratio of Ca to Mg in the water that affects surface energy of Crystals.#geochemchat

An interesting article about GECO project,its about carbon storage in ultramafic rocks. It is a promising tech that allows trapping CO2 emissions from geothermal power plants permanently and safely. #geochemchat

Here's an article that talks about the toxic effects and mechanisms of five heavy metals:Hg,Pb,Cr,As,Cd. They are said to be the most common heavy metals to induce human poisonings.#geochemchat

Worldwide, over half of all arable land suffers from degradation: its soil can nurture crops only to a limited extent, and in some cases, not at all.

Ecosystem restoration has many benefits, including:
🐅Increasing biodiversity
💧Improving air and water quality
💪Empowering indigenous & local knowledge
