Global Warming to Triple Frequency Drought, Floods Along Indian Ocean
2014-06-11 22:14:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Mashable: The frequency of extreme forms of a climate cycle that can cause devastating droughts and flood events from Indonesia to India to Kenya, may triple in the coming decades, according to a new study published Wednesday. The study, published in the journal Nature, ties manmade global warming to shifts in the behavior of a naturally-occurring climate cycle, known as the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). Like the Pacific Ocean, which gives rise to El Nio and La Nia events, the Indian Ocean has its own inherent...

Farmers Can Help Slow Down Global Warming: Study
2014-06-11 00:29:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
International Business Times: Farmers around the world could help reduce global climate change by using more-precise quantity of nitrogen-based fertilizers, according to a new study. According to researchers at Michigan State University, nitrogen fertilizer contributes to emission of green house gas from agricultural fields. The study involved data from across the world to prove that emission of nitrous oxide, which is a greenhouse gas produced in soil and further application of nitrogen as fertilizer, increases the emission...

Rising Global Warming Speeds Up Carbon Dioxide Emissions of Ocean Waters
2014-06-10 23:55:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Business Times: A new study released by researchers from the University of Edinburgh in Scotland has said the release of carbon dioxide emissions by the world's oceans is being heightened up by the continued rise of global warming temperatures. Scientists studied a 26,000-year-old sediment core from the Gulf of California to find out how the ocean's ability to take up atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) has changed over time. The team specifically analysed the abundance of silicon and iron concentrations of fossilised...

Bottom feeding fish helping the fight against Global Warming
2014-06-09 14:29:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Environmental News Network: Over-fishing is already a concerning problem, but new research indicates that not only could it mean losing fish species, it could also contribute to global warming more than we'd previously thought. That's because researchers from the Marine Institute and the University of Southampton have found that fish that feed on our ocean floor and do not come to the surface actually act as carbon sinks. Other examples of naturally occurring carbon sinks include forests and, indeed, the oceans themselves....
