For decades, Earth’s forests, wetlands and soils quietly mopped up a huge share of the carbon pollution from cars, power ...

The satellite images will help analyze carbon-rich areas to understand how the ecosystem reacts to external stressors.

Rivers are a primary source of the plastics that clog oceanic ecosystems and contribute to the continent-sized Great Pacific garbage patch. Broken-down plastics cycle through ecosystems, accumulating ...

Mangrove forests play an important role in the global carbon cycle, particularly within the marine carbon system. Growing ...

EU-funded researchers are developing a new generation of ocean sensors able to monitor previously hard-to-reach areas, promising clearer insight into how marine ecosystems are responding to climate ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Despite escalating anthropogenic alteration of food webs, how the carbon cycle in ecosystems is regulated by food web processes remains poorly ...

The roles microbes play in ecosystems are changing with global warming. Microbes are also affected by infection by viruses, but scientists know relatively little about how these viral infections could ...

Researchers at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography have created a more accurate model of global carbon cycling. The model better accounts for the contributions of Earth’s terrestrial ...

Is groundwater depletion changing how India breathes? Explore new research on how water table levels dictate ecosystem health ...
