The Sturtian Snowball Earth glaciation (717~660 million years ago) represents the most severe icehouse climate in Earth's history. Geological evidence indicates that, during this glaciation, ice ...

Lithium sulfur batteries are often touted as the next major chemistry for electric vehicle applications, if only their cycle life wasn’t so short. But that might be changing soon, as a group of ...

Geochemist Alexandra Phillips has sulfur on her mind. The yellow element is a vital macronutrient, and she’s trying to understand how it cycles through the environment. Specifically, she’s curious ...

The hybrid sulfur cycle, integrating thermal and electrochemical processes, has emerged as a promising route for sustainable hydrogen production with minimal carbon emissions. At its core, the process ...

Among the many different battery chemistries promising a big jump in the capacity, lifetime and cost of energy storage, lithium-sulfur stands out for its potential for strong performance without ...

Nutrient cycles such as the carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous and sulfur cycles are critical processes that free up elements essential to life by recycling them through our water, air, and soil. Sulfur, ...

Estuaries and Coasts, Vol. 40, No. 5 (SEPTEMBER 2017), pp. 1346-1357 (12 pages) To evaluate the impact of invading seagrass on biogeochemical processes associated with sulftir cycles, we investigated ...

Chemists have discovered a completely unexpected shortcut in the global sulfur cycle. This process is determined by tiny organisms in the ocean's plankton. Sulphur is found in many different compounds ...

Chinese and German researchers have announced a significant breakthrough in lithium-sulfur battery technology, demonstrating improved stability and performance. According to their study, published in ...

Interestingly, the researchers discovered a partial sulfur cycle, too — but the hot springs had very few sulfuric compounds to support such activity. Thus it's possible that the microbes carry out a ...
