Scientists have uncovered new details explaining why iron oxide minerals are such effective long-term carbon traps in soils.

Plankton play a central role in a climate process that scientists now say may behave more aggressively than once thought. As ...

A team of researchers has used computer models to simulate tropical cyclones at high resolutions and investigate their effect ...

Deep carbon refers to the carbon found beneath the subsurface of the Earth, where ninety percent of the Earth’s carbon resides. This vital part of the carbon cycle impacts the oceans, atmosphere and ...

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 ...

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 ...

A public YouTube recording highlights how nature-based biomass solutions could deliver gigaton-scale carbon removal while ...

Until a few hundred years ago there was a perfect balance of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere. But since the Industrial Revolution the carbon cycle has been thrown out of kilter. The drastic ...

Where would carbon-based life be without carbon? There are 118 known chemical elements, but carbon is the fourth most abundant and perhaps the most important to human life. Everywhere you look, ...

Scientists know iron oxide minerals store large amounts of carbon in soils, but lack a detailed, quantitative understanding of the specific chemical mechanisms that allow them to bind such a wide ...
