Zoomed into a lab meeting today with @DrBioGC, @AlexNiebergall, @aliceinH2Oland + the rest of Bernhardt + Cassar labs at @DukeU for some fun discussing geoengineering! Each of us presented an approach: I picked enhanced silicate weathering (ESW) (1) https://t.co/zpchIn6La4

What people are saying
The overall tone reflects strong interest and moderate agreement with the research's potential benefits in carbon sequestration, exemplified by mentions of ecosystem studies, open access publications, and geoengineering discussions, demonstrating how the topic resonates with ongoing climate action debates and scientific exploration.
Most discussions recognize the potential of olivine weathering for climate mitigation, suggesting broad agreement with the article's implications.
The posts indicate high interest, especially with references to geoengineering, natural olivine ecosystems, and climate solutions.
Several posts delve into specific aspects like ecosystems, lab research, and practical applications, showing moderate in-depth discussion.
Participants acknowledge that research like this could significantly influence climate strategies, though it remains within scientific discussions.
Abstract in brief
- Enhanced weathering of olivine in seawater can raise alkalinity and help absorb CO2 from the atmosphere, which could be a promising method for climate change mitigation.
- The experiments showed that olivine dissolves in seawater, increasing dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) and confirming the potential for CO2 sequestration, but there are challenges like accurately measuring efficiency in real-world conditions.
- These challenges include issues like non-stoichiometric dissolution, pore water saturation, and secondary reactions, which require more research before deploying this method effectively for climate goals.]

@bataille_chris @ie_nets @tyler_bryant @Khelsilem @TofMcGlade Yes, mined Olivine reacts with CO2 (or more precise with the CO2 in the rainwater). For marine applications: https://t.co/mw7lo5fYbO But the goal is to replace conventional sand/pebble use See https://t.co/LxaBibgmQz

@eruptionsblog @patrickc Our lead scientist, F. Montserrat has studied the thriving ecosystem of the natural olivine sand beach, Papakolea, in Hawaii (in prep). Coral samples from there do not show dangerous levels of bioavailable trace minerals such as nickel. See his other work: https://t.co/bripTfJv8W
@Guus86254721 @DiederikJekel @klimaatTv @svenjense @tudelft @UTwente @albertvdbergtwt Weet u wat: Hier is het hele artikel. https://t.co/mw7lo5fYbO en anders nog een tweede: https://t.co/CR7nBiGnJJ https://t.co/w84HLRSNRL
@Guus86254721 @DiederikJekel @klimaatTv @tudelft @UTwente @albertvdbergtwt Het ligt iets anders. Hier open access publicatie. De oceaan neemt nu CO2 op en wordt hierdoor minder alkalisch. Met meer olivijn ga je deze verzuring tegen. https://t.co/mw7lo5fYbO
@DesmetMarc @MissTie Vandaar onderzoek. Maar de natuur deed dit al miljoenen jaren (en legde zo 80% van C definitief vast). Alleen doen wij nu aan geo-engineering met kolen- en gascentrales. Als u bezorgd bent, hier open access paper. https://t.co/mw7lo5fYbO https://t.co/lpKD7FxPv0
@ManuelSintubin @vrtnws @mondiaalnieuws Grofweg wel. Zie deze publicatie: https://t.co/mw7lo5fYbO En vandaag in België
@helmer_l Toevallig is mijn vakgebied Silicaten (aka #Olivijn). Dus vandaar dat ik hoofdstuk 10 goed ken. Maar als u liever de oorspronkelijke publicatie hebt (open access) https://t.co/aqHeQPAsW0 https://t.co/6O3aw8usPh
