Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial mediation as a possible mechanism for natural dolomite formation at low temperatures
Crisogono Vasconcelos,Judith A. McKenzie,Stefano M. Bernasconi,Djordje Grujic,Albert J. Tiens +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the direct mediation of these anaerobes can overcome the kinetic barrier to dolomite nucleation, and that they may play an active role in the formation of this mineral in natural environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial Mediation of Modern Dolomite Precipitation and Diagenesis Under Anoxic Conditions (Lagoa Vermelha, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a new actualistic model for dolomite formation in Lagoa Vermelha, a shallow-water isolated coastal lagoon east of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Journal Article
Microbial mediation of modern dolomite precipitation and diagenesis under anoxic conditions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new actualistic model for dolomite formation in Lagoa Vermelha, a shallow-water isolated coastal lagoon east of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterially induced dolomite precipitation in anoxic culture experiments
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the isolation of a particular strain of sulfate-reducing bacteria, LVform6, from Lagoa Vermelha sediment, which apparently promoted the formation of nonstoichiometric dolomite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calibration of the δ18O paleothermometer for dolomite precipitated in microbial cultures and natural environments
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report on the results of microbial experiments that have enabled them to calibrate the dolomite-water oxygen isotope fractionation factor and provide a paleothermometer to evaluate conditions of ancient dolomerite formation.
