Understanding coupled chemical-mechanical behaviors in minerals

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Xin Zhang
Project type
Contracted Time
This proposal aims to develop a comprehensive, unified understanding of how applied stress and interfacial chemistry couple to define mineral nanoparticle dissolution, recrystallization, and…

Microbial diversity, complexity, and dynamics within a ‘grass-to-glass’ profile at a late iron age archaeological site, and as a function of climatic variables

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Carolyn Pearce
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
We propose to systematically analyze the microbial consortia that are enriched on rock surfaces as a function of depth through a ‘grass-to-glass’ profile using samples obtained during the excavation…

Probing Iron Oxide Mineral Aggregation Behavior with Soil Organic Matters

Lead Institution
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
Principal Investigator
Xin Zhang
Project type
Large-Scale EMSL Research
The goal of this project is to develop a fundamental understanding of iron oxide nanoparticle (NPs) aggregation mechanisms with soil organic matters (SOM). Heteroaggregation is a ubiquitous but…
