A previously unexploited source of information is now throwing new light on Earth's climate during the age of dinosaurs.

That has mainly been due to carbon uptake from plants, which regulate atmospheric levels of the molecule through photosynthesis, and a storage process in the permafrost, which traps carbon dioxide ...

An international team of researchers led by the University of Göttingen, with support from the Open University, the ...

What is methane and why is it important to understand its sources? Methane is the second-most important long-lived greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, and its impact on the climate is second only to ...

Record heat in 2024 caused ecosystems on land to emit nearly as much carbon dioxide as they took out of the atmosphere ...

Another plus is that COF-999 will loosen its hold on the carbon dioxide when it's heated to about 140 degrees. Comparable materials must be heated to 250 degrees to extract carbon, Zhou said.

Forests cover about 40% of the EU's land area. Between 1990 and 2022, they absorbed around 10% of the continent's man-made ...

The amount of carbon dioxide in our atmosphere is increasing faster than ever. A June 2024 report from NOAA found that peak to peak from 2022 to 2024, we saw the largest two-year jump on record. As ...

American forests are important sources of carbon sequestration, storing millions of tons of carbon dioxide each year. However, a unique experiment led by Peter Reich, University of Michigan professor ...
