A new study reveals that implementing enhanced weathering (EW), the practice of adding crushed basalt to soils, with U.S. agriculture could remove between 160 and 300 million metric tons of carbon ...
Natural silicate minerals such as basalt react with water and CO2 to form solid carbonate materials, a process known as enhanced rock weathering (ERW). Studies suggest spreading crushed silicate ...
Since the 1990s, scientists have been searching for ways to make rocks absorb carbon dioxide more rapidly through enhanced weathering techniques. Kanan and Stanford postdoctoral scholar Yuxuan ...

A climate intervention strategy called enhanced rock weathering, if applied globally, could help meet a key IPCC goal for slowing climate change, according to new research published in the AGU ...
The Leverhulme Centre for Climate Change Mitigation (LC3M) is investigating a carbon dioxide removal strategy called enhanced rock weathering. Weathering is the natural chemical breakdown of rocks ...
She named it "Weathering." "The idea of weathering was connoting sort of how a rock, for example, would be weathered by hundreds of years of rain and wind," she said. "It's gonna affect it [and ...
cations and anions are affected We’ll be quantifying field weathering rates, which means measuring how quickly and effectively the chemical processes are happening. We’ll also be looking at greenhouse ...
and enhanced weathering, which refers to speeding up the process by which rocks naturally trap CO2. Climeworks doesn’t itself provide these other services, but acts as an intermediary ...
