Skeletonization, a crucial step in pore network modeling, traditionally involves the extraction of skeleton pixels from binarized, segmented X-ray images of porous materials. However, this conventional approach often suffers ...

Low salinity water flooding is a common technique for enhancing oil recovery; however, the mechanism behind the low-salinity effect, positive or negative, is still not fully understood. In the proposed mechanisms, osmosis ...

Eocene transient global warming events (hyperthermals) can provide insight into a future warmer world. While much research has focused on the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), hyperthermals of a smaller magnitude ...

Ceratopsids represent one of the most iconic groups of non-avian dinosaurs. These large quadrupedal ornithischians are well-known for their bizarre cranial ornamentations, which are distinctive among different ceratopsids. ...

Enhanced mineral dissolution in the benthic environment is currently discussed as a potential technique for ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE) to reduce atmospheric CO2 levels. This study explores how biogeochemical processes ...

Aquitards are common hydrogeological features and their hydraulic conductivity is an important property for various groundwater management issues. Predicting their hydraulic conductivity proves challenging, given its ...

Background Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 6 envisions a future where everyone has access to clean water and sanitation. Yet, as 2030 looms closer, the complexity of achieving this target becomes apparent, with issues ...

The impact of solution stoichiometry on formation of BaSO4 (barite) crystals and the development of surface charge was investigated at various predefined stoichiometries (raq = 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10, and 100, where raq = ...
