- Title
Rolling stones; fast weathering of olivine in shallow seas for cost-effective CO<sub>2</sub> capture and mitigation of global warming and ocean acidification.

Schuiling, R. D.; de Boer, P. L.
- Abstract
The article presents a study which explores whether olivine weathering in nature is a slow process. It reveals that the application of olivine and other mafic minerals in high-energy shallow marine environments weather fast and could aid in the fight against climate change. It notes olivine spreading can mitigate carbon dioxide emissions and counteract ocean acidification.
