While chemical oxidants are effective at rapidly removing contaminant mass, bioremediation, the act of using living organisms to treat soil and groundwater can be effective at treating low contaminant concentrations as a final polishing step towards achieving site closure. To learn this and other helpful Opportunity Zones tips, download the eBook.

Do tectonic plates move because of motion in the Earth's mantle, or is the mantle driven by the plates' movement? Or could it be that this question is ill-posed? This is the point of view adopted by scientists who regard the solid Earth as a single system. According to their simulations, the surface mainly drives the mantle, although changes occur over time.

To understand the resources of the near future, geologists need to understand the volcanoes of the distant past. Exploration of ancient magma chambers in places such as Greenland has the potential to provide new sources of the rare metals that underpin modern green technologies.

More than four years after New Horizons' historic July 2015 Pluto flyby, mission scientists have released detailed images of Pluto's far side, which the spacecraft was able to image only in low resolution on approach and following departure.

In fractured reservoirs characterized by low matrix permeability, fracture networks control the main fluid flow paths. However, in layered reservoirs, the vertical extension of fractures is often restricted to single layers. In this study, we explored the effect of changing marl/shale thickness on fracture extension using comprehensive field data and numerical modeling.

Surface Biology and Geology, a new NASA Earth observation effort, is developing a path forward for monitoring the Earth system from space.
Space-based Earth observations are critical in advancing both our fundamental understanding of how the planet operates and our ability to monitor, predict and respond to changes on short and long timescales.

Observations by six Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) polar cap radars, three in the northern hemisphere and three in the southern hemispheres, are considered to assess F region echo occurrence rates over solar, season, and day cycles and to establish relationship between the echo occurrence rate and the background electron density and plasma flow velocity magnitude.

In this study, we utilize high-resolution X-ray computed tomography (XCT) to track the progress of a leaching process within a pore network. Dissolution and leaching are difficult processes to observe with combined temporal and spatial context, particularly when dissolving material within a non-reactive pore network, and XCT is a uniquely suited technique for observing dissolution in situ, and extracting quantitative data on pore networks and the material in them in 3-D.

Scientists made a surprising discovery: the glaciers in Canada's high Arctic absorbs carbon dioxide better than the Amazon rainforest. The discovery happened while collecting meltwater samples on Ellesmere Island, in the territory of Nunavut, Canada where several glaciers flow into Lake Hazen. Dr. St. Pierre said that this research was conducted because nobody knows what happens if meltwaters flow into rivers and downstream lakes, despite the world know the state of glaciers globally.
