STRUCTURAL CONTROLS ON FE OXIDE FORMATION: A CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF THE GROWTH OF HEMATITE VERSUS GOETHITE

STRUCTURAL CONTROLS ON FE OXIDE FORMATION: A CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC ANALYSIS OF THE GROWTH OF HEMATITE VERSUS GOETHITE
PI: James Kubicki
Sponsor: NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION THROUGH PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY
Geological Sciences
Amount awarded: $46,170

In order to understand the kinetics of transformation from ferrihydrite to hematite and/or goethite, this project investigates the sensitivity of the kinetics to temperature and pore solution pH to optimize applications of hematite/goethite paleoclimate proxies, which is of importance to the environment.
