Study Reveals Uncertainty in How Much Carbon the Ocean Absorbs Over Time
The ocean’s “biological pump” describes the many marine processes that work to take up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and transport it deep into the ocean, where it can remain sequestered for centuries.
New Study Ties Solar Variability to the Onset of Decadal La Nina Events
A new study shows a correlation between the end of solar cycles and a switch from El Nino to La Nina conditions in the Pacific Ocean, suggesting that solar variability can drive seasonal weather variability on Earth.
Increased Winter Snowmelt Threatens Western Water Resources
More snow is melting during winter across the West, a concerning trend that could impact everything from ski conditions to fire danger and agriculture, according to a new CU Boulder analysis of 40 years of data.
New Paper Shows Benefits of Louisiana Coastal Restoration to Soil Carbon Sequestration
Without restoration efforts in coastal Louisiana, marshes in the state could lose half of their current ability to store carbon in the soil over a period of 50 years, according to a new paper published in American Geophysical Union Journal of Geophysical Research Biogeosciences.
