Climate change means more rain, more nitrogen runoff, more problems
2017-07-27 06:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld
[NEWS] An intensifying water cycle will likely cause dramatic increases - nearing 20% by 2100 - in the amount of nitrogen runoff in the U.S., according to a new study. Excessive nitrogen that mixes with rivers and estuaries can profoundly affect water systems; for example it can spur algal blooms, which have negative impacts on human health, aquatic ecosystems and the economy. Future changes in precipitation patterns, induced by climate change, could strongly influence the degree of future n…

Arctic found to play unexpectedly large role in removing nitrogen
2016-10-26 12:00:00| LifeSciencesWorld
[NEWS] Areas of the Arctic play a larger role than previously thought in the global nitrogen cycle—the process responsible for keeping a critical element necessary for life flowing between the atmosphere, the land and oceans. The finding is reported in a new study of the continental shelf in the Arctic Ocean published Wednesday in the journal Nature Communications. In the new study, marine chemists and biologists from The University of Texas at Austin discovered that seabed microbes remove substa…
