This review focuses on the effect of water on the binding conformation of an organic molecule at a hydrated calcite crystal surface. A recent molecular dynamics simulation suggested that water ...

When looking at calcite under a microscope, a scientist would immediately recognize the crystalline form of calcium carbonate by its rhombohedral appearance. That is, calcite is shaped like a ...

Spots of light glinted off the faceted sides of more than a dozen calcite crystals stuck inside a small cave at the top of a steep, rocky couloir. Tom Benedict balanced on a thin log spread across the ...
