In hypersaline settings, microbial metabolic processes, predominantly sulfate reduction or methanogenesis, induce high alkalinity, which together with moderate to high Mg:Ca ratios creates high supersaturation and commonly leads to dumbbell-shaped dolomite aggregates.
“In such settings, microbial metabolic processes (predominantly sulfate reduction or methanogenesis) induce high alkalinity. Together with the moderate to high Mg:Ca concentration ratios (1:1 to 100:1), this creates high supersaturation levels that commonly lead to the formation of 'dumbbell shaped' aggregates of dolomite (Warthmann et al. 2000; Sánchez-Román et al. 2011).”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredSpheroidal morphologies similar to protodolomite/dolomite formed in microbial systems suggest that microbially induced Ca-Mg-carbonates may have also formed via spherulitic growth.
“Interestingly, such spheroidal morphologies are similar to those observed for protodolomite/dolomite formed in microbial systems (i.e., spheroidal or dumbbell-shaped dolomite aggregates) suggesting that microbially induced Ca-Mg-carbonates may have also formed via spherulitic growth (Warthmann et al. 2000; Sánchez-Román et al. 2011).”

Comparing our experimental results with bacterially mediated dolomite formation studies reveals many similarities including resulting particle morphologies, supersaturation/alkalinity, and temperature.
“Comparing our experimental results with bacterially mediated dolomite formation studies (e.g., Kenward et al. 2009; Sánchez-Román et al. 2011; Meister et al. 2011), reveals many similarities including the resulting particle morphologies, the supersaturation/ alkalinity and temperature.”

Several microbial studies have shown formation of proto-dolomite and dolomite at ambient conditions, but it is unclear whether an amorphous carbonate precursor formed prior to crystallization.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
