In the midst of the COVID pandemic, scientists embarked on an ambitious research expedition to the North Atlantic to investigate the inner workings of the ocean’s carbon cycle. A series of storms ...
Spawning is the very beginning of the salmon life cycle and is the process of releasing eggs and fertilizing them. This takes place in rivers, and these are often the very same rivers where the ...
A new study reveals that Earth’s climate “thermostat” may sometimes overreact, turning global warming into an unexpected deep freeze. Credit: Shutterstock Scientists have uncovered a hidden feedback ...
Salt Creek in Death Valley, California. A new analysis reveals that rivers in arid landscapes are helping to soak up more carbon dioxide than previously thought. “Rivers are one of the most uncertain ...
Emission reduction in the petrochemical industry is essential to meet climate targets, as the chemical industry is a major contributor to industrial greenhouse gas emissions. Life Cycle Assessment ...
Scientists have created a glowing molecular probe that lets them watch marine microbes digest sugars in real time. This breakthrough tool reveals how algae and bacteria interact in the ocean and how ...
In the grand theater of planetary climate, Earth has always played a balancing act, teetering between fire and ice, warmth and chill, life and lifelessness. But a new study from UC Riverside suggests ...
