Over millions of years, the oxidation of organic carbon contained within sedimentary rocks is one of the main sources of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, yet the controls on this emission remain poorly constrained. We use rhenium to track the oxidat... Read More about Mountain glaciation drives rapid oxidation of rock-bound organic carbon.

Characterization of Lubricant Degeneration and Component Deterioration on Diesel Engine Fueling with Straight Plant Oil (2017)
Journal Article
Almutairi, A., Wu, D., Guo, B., Roskilly, A. P., & Ottley, C. (2017). Characterization of Lubricant Degeneration and Component Deterioration on Diesel Engine Fueling with Straight Plant Oil. Energy Procedia, 105, 636-641. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.egypro.2017.03.368

Straight Plant Oils (SPOs) are promising alternatives to diesel fuel in some particular applications, e.g. electrification in remote areas and sustainable modernization of artisan fishing vessels. Moderate commercialization of SPOs is yet to be reali... Read More about Characterization of Lubricant Degeneration and Component Deterioration on Diesel Engine Fueling with Straight Plant Oil.
