Excess pCO2 and carbonate system geochemistry in surface seawater of the exclusive economic zone of Qatar (Arabian Gulf) حسب Connor, Izumi

"…Its values in the Gulf ranged from −50 to −310 μmol kg−1 implying CaCO3 precipitation. The average value of ΔAlk*, the difference in Alk* between specific locations in the Qatari EEZ and the surface water entering through the Strait of Hormuz, was −130 μmol kg−1 which corresponded to a calcification of 65 μmol kg−1. …"

Thermally assisted efficient electrochemical lithium extraction from simulated seawater حسب Yanxi, Yu

"…Comprehensive material characterization and mechanistic analyses revealed that the improved lithium extraction originates from boosted kinetics rather than thermodynamic equilibrium shifts. A higher temperature (i.e., 60 oC) mitigates the activation polarization of lithium intercalation, decreases charge transfer resistances, and improves lithium diffusion. …"
