Plankton’s Ability To Sequester Carbon Is Influenced by Ocean Density, Study Shows
- Thursday December 5, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A study published in Royal Society Open Science explores how changes in ocean density influence marine plankton, particularly the foraminifera species Trilobatus trilobus, in incorporating carbon into their shells. These organisms play a key role in the carbon cycle by sequestering carbon in the ocean floor after death. The study, led by Dr Stergio...

Global Fossil CO2 Emissions Hit Record High in 2024: Here's What You Need to Know
- Wednesday November 13, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Global CO2 emissions from fossil fuels reached a record high in 2024 at 37.4 billion tonnes, up 0.8% from 2023, according to the Global Carbon Project. Despite progress in renewables and climate efforts, fossil fuel use has not yet peaked, raising concerns about reaching global warming limits. With 41.6 billion tonnes of CO2 projected overall, scie...

Ancient Log Discovery in Canada Shows How Wood Burial Could Be Key to Affordable Carbon Storage
- Thursday November 7, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
A 3,775-year-old log, found by climate scientist Ning Zeng's team in Canada, has shown the potential of buried wood for long-term carbon storage. When covered by clay, the log retained most of its carbon, hinting at a cost-effective, natural solution for lowering atmospheric CO2 levels. Researchers suggest this low-cost strategy could lock away car...

Volcanoes "Hidden Source" Of Carbon-Dioxide In Past Climate Change: Study
- Wednesday October 30, 2024
- World News | Agence France-Presse
Massive fields of magma underneath ancient volcanoes spewed out carbon dioxide long after eruptions on the surface had ended, potentially explaining why past global warming episodes lasted longer than expected, a study said Wednesday.

Rainfall Significantly Boosts Ocean Carbon Dioxide Absorption Rates, Claims New Study
- Monday October 28, 2024
- NDTV
A new study led by David Ho highlights that rainfall significantly increases the ocean's carbon dioxide absorption by 5% to 7%, adding up to 140 to 190 million metric tons of CO2 annually. This research identifies mechanisms like turbulence, dilution, and wet deposition as key contributors to enhanced carbon uptake. The findings are crucial for imp...

Burying Wood: A Simple, Low-Tech Carbon Storage Solution to Combat Climate Change
- Tuesday October 1, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Researchers have found a 3,775-year-old log buried under a farm in Canada, offering insight into a low-cost and scalable method to lock carbon out of the atmosphere for millennia. The study reveals that burying wood under the right conditions, such as in oxygen-deprived environments and clay soils, could prevent its decay and preserve its carbon co...

Greenhouse Gas is Rising Rapidly in Atmosphere Due to Human Activities, Highlights New Report
- Monday September 16, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Methane levels, which are 80 times more potent than CO2 in the short term, are rising at an unprecedented rate. Human activities, such as agriculture and fossil fuel extraction, contribute significantly to this surge. Despite global efforts, including the 2021 Global Methane Pledge, methane emissions continue to climb. This trend threatens climate ...

Antarctica Was Last Ice-Free 34 Million Years Ago: What Triggered This Climate Shift?
- Tuesday September 10, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Antarctica, which is nearly four times the size of the United States, was not always covered in ice. The last time it was ice-free was 34 million years ago during the Eocene-Oligocene boundary. At that time, global temperatures were higher, and carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere were much higher than today. However, a significant drop in CO2 l...

Recent research reveals that Greenland, now 98% covered in ice, was almost entirely ice-free at some point in the last million years. Fossils of plants like willow and Arctic poppy, found in an ice core sample from the island’s center, suggest a once-thriving tundra ecosystem. This discovery is significant because it challenges previous beliefs t...
