Methane is a climate pollutant that leads to the production of ozone with serious health and environmental impacts
Increasing frequency of ocean storms alters kelp forest ecosystems
How would increasingly frequent ocean storms affect the biodiversity of undersea kelp forests?
Researchers at the University of Virginia (UVA) and the University of California, Santa Barbara, report that more frequent storms could dramatically change the sea life along the California coast.
The findings appear this week in the journal Ecology.
Laser technique may open door to more efficient clean fuels
Research by the University of Liverpool could help scientists unlock the full potential of new clean energy technologies.
Balloon Measurements Reveal Dust Particle Properties in Free Troposphere over a Desert
The Taklamakan Desert, one of the major sources of background Asian dust, is situated in the Tarim Basin, with the Tianshan Mountains in the north, Pamir Plateau in the west, and Kunlun Mountains in the south. Dunhuang (40°00？N, 94°30？E; 1146 m above sea level) is located in the east of the Taklamakan Desert, China. The area is significant for studying the initial state of Asian dust particle transportation, which is mainly influenced by westerly winds.
Decline in Commercial Shellfish Landings Likely Linked to Environmental Factors, Not Overfishing
Researchers studying the sharp decline between 1980 and 2010 in documented landings of the four most commercially-important bivalve mollusks – eastern oysters, northern quahogs, softshell clams and northern bay scallops – have identified the causes.
