Motivated by this suggestion, we have compiled a database of Cr concentration in Precambrian iron formations (banded iron formations, BIFs, and granular iron formations, GIFs) and in Phanerozoic ...

Disruption to Atm1 can cause serious problems; in the human gene ABCB7, a member of the Atm1 family, mutations can cause granular iron accumulation in mitochondria surrounding cell nuclei. This in ...

Temperature-resilient superior performances by coupling partial nitritation/anammox and iron-based denitrification with granular formation.

The paper, "Hydrogeological constraints on the formation of Palaeoproterozoic banded iron formations," was published in Nature Geoscience (doi: 10.1038/s41561-019-0372-0). Journal Nature Geoscience ...

A recent Hrenya group publication titled “Kinetic-theory predictions of clustering instabilities in granular flows: beyond the small-Knudsen-number regime” (Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 738, R2, 2014) ...

Metamorphosed banded iron formation from southern Wyoming showing deformation and folding. The rock is approximately 2.7 billion years old. Dark bands are iron oxides (magnetite, hematite) and ...

Core work: Iron vapor gives clues to formation of Earth and moon Date: March 2, 2015 Source: University of California - Davis Summary: One of the world's most powerful radiation sources provides ...

The banded iron formation, located in western China, has been conclusively dated as Cambrian in age. Approximately 527 million years old, this formation is young by comparison to the majority of ...
