Lead instructor: Giovanna Paola Della Porta
1) Illustrate nucleation and growth processes of carbonate minerals in natural settings;
2) Introduce non-classical crystallization pathways in carbonates: biominerals, bio-induced minerals and inorganic precipitates
3) Introduce techniques used in environmental, past climate and astro-biological research: Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Chemical mapping (EDS, Synchrotron-Radiation based XRF), stable isotope ratios
4) Illustrate through examples the power of compounding crystallography and geochemistry in climate and environmental research
