OAKLAND, Calif.— The untapped potential of carbon storage and sequestration in different native habitats is too often ignored in California’s land-use decisions, according to a new report published ...

THE Philippine Rise is a natural carbon sink that could contribute to climate-change mitigation, according to a study led by ...

Ocean acidification, caused by the ongoing absorption of atmospheric CO₂, poses threats to marine ecosystems and biodiversity. Accurately assessing variations in seawater pH is crucial for ...

Long-term data from a deep-sea observatory shows hurricanes transport reef sediments and pollutants to the deep ocean, ...

The biological carbon pump — the natural process of marine organisms and fish drawing CO2 from the atmosphere and storing it in the ocean — has the potential to remove roughly $1 trillion per year ...

A new publication by researchers from the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Oxford shows that the ...

Soil carbon storage is a vital ecosystem service, resulting from interactions of ecological processes. Human activities affecting these processes can lead to carbon loss or improved storage.

It is commonly assumed that as forest ecosystems age, they accumulate and store (sequester) more carbon. A study based at the University of Michigan Biological Station has untangled carbon cycling ...
