New Publication by C. Läuchli: Marine Authigenic Clays and the Lithium Cycle

We’re proud to highlight a new publication by our PhD candidate Charlotte Läuchli, investigating the formation of marine authigenic clays offshore Chile—and their role in the marine lithium cycle.

This study sheds light on how these seafloor minerals may influence the global carbon cycle, offering fresh insights into climate-relevant geochemical processes beneath the ocean floor.

A fascinating read for anyone interested in marine geochemistry, element cycling, and the hidden dynamics of our ocean systems.
