Thesis
Investigating the organic and environmental controls on elemental sulfur formation
- Abstract:
-
Elemental sulfur (S0) plays an important role in the global biogeochemical sulfur cycle, acting as a critical redox intermediate in sedimentary and aquatic environments. While traditionally viewed as thermodynamically unstable and transient in low-temperature aqueous settings, recent research suggests that interactions with organic matter facilitate S0 formation and persistence—a process termed "organomineralization." This thesis explores the abiotic organomineralization of S0 in controlled a...
