Rivers, lakes and wetlands are important factors for climate change, which should have a place in conceptual models of the global carbon cycle. A broader concept of a 'boundless carbon cycle ...

Autotrophs participate in the carbon cycle by fixing carbon dioxide to produce the biomass that all other organisms use for life. Four autotrophic carbon-fixation pathways were already known and ...

The world’s largest iceberg, A23a, has broken free after being stuck for over 30 years. Weighing nearly a trillion tonnes, it ...

Seagrass meadows have an important climate protection function due to their long-term carbon storage potential. An ...

With carbon emissions continuing to grow exponentially, the key to unlocking a greener world could lie in the feeding (and ...

as part of what is called ‘the global carbon cycle.’ A change in any of these fluxes could have wide-ranging impacts on ecosystems and our climate. The IAEA Environment Laboratories apply nuclear and ...

Plants have colonized and modified the world's surface for the past 400 million years. In this book the authors demonstrate that an understanding of the role of vegetation in the terrestrial carbon ...

Dead organisms are broken down into smaller pieces by the process of decay. Organisms such as earthworms are involved in this process.

Understanding how key players such as whales, plankton, seagrasses and other forms of sea life interact sheds light on Earth’s carbon cycle. Carbon, a chemical element, is found in all organic ...
