• The Habitability of Planets Orbiting M-dwarf Stars (2016, background): “…by abiotic processes such as serpentinization (the alteration of rocks with the addition of water into the crystal structure of their minerals; e.g. Kelley et al., 2005; Etiope & Sherwood Lollar, 2013), although this water- and tectonically- driven process itself could be a sign of habitability…”
• WATER LOSS FROM TERRESTRIAL PLANETS WITH CO2-RICH ATMOSPHERES (2013, neutral): “ing hypothesis for the origin of life on Earth posits that it occurred in hydrothermal vents (specically, in alkaline vents similar to the Lost City region in the mid-Atlantic) (Russell et al. 1994; Kelley et al. 2005). However, even this mechanism could become problematic if the ocean volume is so ”
• Pale Orange Dots: The Impact of Organic Haze on the Habitability and Detectability of Earthlike Exoplanets (2016, background): “…terrestrial exoplanets with organic haze may occur frequently as methane (CH4) can be produced by several abiotic processes (Kasting 2005; Kelley et al. 2005; Etiope & Sherwood Lollar 2013; GuzmánMarmolejo et al. 2013), and CH4-producing metabolisms (i.e., methanogenesis) are simple and…”
