Global warming predictions are overestimated, suggests study on black carbon
A detailed analysis of black carbon -- the residue of burned organic matter -- in computer climate models suggests that those models may be overestimating global warming predictions. view more (2008-11-20)
Nature can help reduce greenhouse gas, but only to a point
Plants apparently do much less than previously thought to counteract global warming, according to a paper to be published in next week's online edition of Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. view more (2006-04-11)
TREATING POLLUTED LAND WITH CARBON DIOXIDE
First a granular binder containing products which react with carbon is added to the contaminated soil and then carbon dioxide is pumped into the mixture. The three components rapidly combine to produce a cement that is very stable, and although marginally more expensive is immediately available for development. The land can then be used for... view more... (1999-11-25)
Global warming of the future is projected by ancient carbon emissions
Global warming 55 million years ago suggests a high climate sensitivity to carbon dioxide, according to research led by Mark Pagani, associate professor of geology and geophysics at Yale and published in the December 8 issue of Science. view more (2006-12-08)
Beneficial effects of no-till farming depend upon future climate change
By storing carbon in their fields through no-till farming practice, farmers can help countries meet targeted reductions in atmospheric carbon dioxide and reduce the harmful effects of global warming. view more (2005-10-13)
Mice use specialized neurons to detect carbon dioxide in the air
For mice, carbon dioxide often means danger - too many animals breathing in too small a space or a hungry predator exhaling nearby. view more (2007-08-17)
Forests Could Benefit When Fall Color Comes Late
Do those fall colors seem to show up later and later-if at all? Scientists say we can blame increasing amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere for prolonging the growing season of the trees. And that may actually be good news for forestry industries. view more (2008-01-23)
New model revises estimates of terrestrial carbon dioxide uptake
Researchers at the University of Illinois have developed a new model of global carbon and nitrogen cycling that will fundamentally transform the understanding of how plants and soils interact with a changing atmosphere and climate. view more (2007-12-12)
Global climate change: a load of poo?
Plankton poo could be the key to understanding how much carbon dioxide our oceans can store according to Tasmanian researcher Dr Karin Beaumont. view more (2004-09-09)
NORTH ATLANTIC SLOWS DOWN THE GREENHOUSE-EFFECT
What sounds to us like bookkeeping of global change and tedious science, has a big meaning for our climate future. After all, traffic and industrial plants in Europe and North America play a particularly large role in the carbon dioxide pollution of the atmosphere and the greenhouse-effect resulting from it. The processes in the North Atlantic... view more... (1999-06-08)
Gas from the past gives scientists new insights into climate and the oceans
In recent years, public discussion of climate change has included concerns that increased levels of carbon dioxide will contribute to global warming, which in turn may change the circulation in the earth's oceans, with potentially disastrous consequences. view more (2008-10-06)
Arctic land and seas account for up to 25 percent of world's carbon sink
In a new study in the journal Ecological Monographs, ecologists estimate that Arctic lands and oceans are responsible for up to 25 percent of the global net sink of atmospheric carbon dioxide. view more (2009-10-15)
A new measure of global warming from carbon emissions
Damon Matthews, a professor in Concordia University's Department of Geography, Planning and the Environment has found a direct relationship between carbon dioxide emissions and global warming. view more (2009-06-11)
New Separation Technology With Carbon Dioxide Is Cleaner And Cheaper
Researchers of Wageningen University and Research Centre in the Netherlands have developed a new clean, process to isolate valuable or undesired components from solids, such as components for food products. In contrast to other conventional processes, the new invention concerns a continuous process that can be controlled easily and secondly, leads... view more... (2004-07-05)
Scientists enhance Mother Nature's carbon handling mechanism
Taking a page from Nature herself, a team of researchers developed a method to enhance removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and place it in the Earth's oceans for storage. view more (2007-11-07)
Hungry microbes share out the carbon in the roots of plants
Sugars made by plants are rapidly used by microbes living in their roots, according to new research at the University of York, creating a short cut in the carbon cycle that is vital to life on earth. view more (2007-10-19)
UA scientists part of Supreme Court case on carbon dioxide emissions
Four faculty members from The University of Arizona in Tucson were part of an amicus curiae brief supporting the plaintiff in today's historic U.S. Supreme Court decision on carbon dioxide emissions and climate change. view more (2007-04-03)
Methane-eating microbes can use iron and manganese oxides to 'breathe'
Iron and manganese compounds, in addition to sulfate, may play an important role in converting methane to carbon dioxide and eventually carbonates in the Earth's oceans, according to a team of researchers looking at anaerobic sediments. view more (2009-07-10)
Kentucky Geological Survey involved in global climate change research
Researchers at the Kentucky Geological Survey are studying options to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emitted into the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is produced by the burning of coal, gasoline, and natural gas and has been linked to global warming. view more (2005-07-15)
Tropical rainforest nutrients linked to global carbon dioxide levels
Extra amounts of key nutrients in tropical rain forest soils cause them to release more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, according to research conducted by scientists at the University of Colorado (CU)—Boulder. view more (2006-06-21)
