(A) Photosynthesis in land plants fixes atmospheric CO2 (inorganic carbon) as organic carbon, which is either stored as plant biomass or in soil, or is decomposed back to CO2 through plant and ...

Carbon, a building block of life, is constantly moving through different environmental compartments such as biota, the atmosphere, the ocean, soil and sediment, as part of what is called ‘the global ...

The Sun, like other stars, is a natural fusion reactor, where stellar nucleosynthesis transforms lighter elements into heavier elements with the release of energy ...

Which stars form which elements, and how those elements form, is what stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis aims to understand. Stellar evolution looks at how stars change their structure and ...

This technology is part of what is known as carbon capture and storage (CCS). At the time of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol it was already being proposed as a way to reduce emissions in localised sources ...
