Carbon emissions on track to make crossing 1.5C threshold inevitable by 2028, scientists warn Scientists warn that greenhouse gas accumulation is accelerating and more extreme weather will come.

On Earth, our familiar carbonate is calcite (calcium carbonate), forming vast limestone deposits. This is a cornerstone of Earth's long-term carbon cycle: volcanic CO2 enters the atmosphere, dissolves ...

Marine sediments are the planet's largest long-term reservoir of organic carbon, particularly in huge underwater mud patches, making them a vital component of the global carbon cycle.

Ancient carbon is trapped in rocks, peat bogs and wetlands. The findings suggest that as much as 1 gigatonne of it is being released back into the atmosphere each year through rivers.

Paul Hawken. Jasmine Scaelsciani Hawken As Carbon’s subtitle suggests, the element is indeed the stuff of life – all life – on Earth. Its flow – the carbon cycle – transforms carbon ...

MBARI researchers and collaborators from Florida State University have developed a new method for using satellite data to predict how much carbon the ocean absorbs after a bloom at the surface ...

Researchers have successfully launched a new satellite that is designed to study the planet's forests and "provide unprecedented insight" into how those regions impact the Earth's carbon cycle ...

Tropical coastal forests known as mangroves are known for being the first “buffer zones” in coastal systems. New research shows they may also be resilient to hurricane damage and capture more carbon ...

Elon Musk funded an XPrize for carbon removal, but his actions in the Trump administration have cut funding for climate research ...

Curiosity’s findings also show evidence of an ancient carbon cycle on Mars. Researchers identified iron oxyhydroxides in the carbonate-bearing sediments, minerals indicating that some previously ...

Carbon sequestration Rover finds hints of an ancient Martian carbon cycle Rather than cycling, some of Mars' carbon took a one-way trip into rocks.
