Rapid plankton growth seen as indicator carbon dioxide loading in oceans
2015-11-27 19:04:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environmental News Network: A microscopic marine alga is thriving in the North Atlantic to an extent that defies scientific predictions, suggesting swift environmental change as a result of increased carbon dioxide in the ocean, a study led a by Johns Hopkins University scientist has found. What these findings mean remains to be seen, as does whether the rapid growth in the tiny plankton's population is good or bad news for the planet. Published today in the journal Science, the study details a tenfold increase in the abundance...

Marine invasive species benefit from rising carbon dioxide level
2015-11-06 22:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Ocean acidification may well be helping invasive species of algae, jellyfish, crabs and shellfish to move to new areas of the planet with damaging consequences, according to the findings of a new report. Slimy, jelly-like creatures are far more tolerant of rising carbon dioxide levels than those with hard structures like corals, since exposed shells and skeletons simply dissolve away as CO2 levels rise. The study, conducted by marine scientists at Plymouth University, has found that a number...

News Volkswagen overstated carbon dioxide efficiency sends share plunging
2015-11-04 15:10:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: The company has been unable halt the flow of bad news since the scandal broke Sept. 18, when the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said Volkswagen had installed software on 482,000 cars that enabled them to cheat on emissions tests for one pollutant, nitrogen oxide. The software reduced emissions when the car was on a test stand. Up to 11 million Volkswagen vehicles worldwide have the software. The carmaker said late Tuesday it had also found "unexplained inconsistencies" in emissions from...
