Shells of tiny ocean creatures reveal a hidden boundary in the Atlantic that could affect the Earth's global carbon cycle.

The carbon cycle is a staple on any Earth science class syllabus, but scientists are still studying its nuances.

Geologists doing fieldwork in southeastern Utah's Cedar Mountain Formation found carbon isotope evidence that the site, though on land, experienced the same early Cretaceous carbon-cycle change ...

The ocean is an important carbon sink that absorbs 20–30% of the total anthropogenic CO2 emissions in the industrial era (1.0–3.0 Pg annually, 1 Pg = 1015 g). Tropical cyclones are among the most ...

The idea of animating the carbon cycle (ACC) is relatively new. The concept champions the role that healthy populations of wild animals, both terrestrial and marine, can play in boosting the ability ...

Soils store more carbon than the atmosphere and vegetation combined, with soil microorganisms playing the main role. As a result, the global soil carbon cycle—by which carbon enters, moves through, ...

Tropical cyclones have long pushed carbon out of the ocean, but warming seas are changing that balance and may soon reverse ...

Le carbone bleu désigne le carbone organique qui est capturé et stocké par l’océan dans les écosystèmes côtiers végétalisés, tels que les forêts de mangroves, les marais salés et les prairies ...

Where would carbon-based life be without carbon? There are 118 known chemical elements, but carbon is the fourth most abundant and perhaps the most important to human life. Everywhere you look, ...
