Study Finds Buried Fossil Soils Large Contributors to Global Warming
2014-05-27 09:10:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
International Business Times: A study by the University of Wisconsin-Madison has revealed that buried fossils in 15,000 year-old soil could contain high carbon content. Moreover, when disturbed through "erosion, agriculture, deforestation, mining and other human activities," they will become large contributors to further exacerbate global warming and climate change. The work suggests that fossil organic carbon in buried soils is widespread and, as humans increasingly disturb landscapes through a variety of activities, a potential...

Climate warming driving native trout to extinction, study says
2014-05-26 16:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
NBC: Montana fly fishing guide and shop owner Jason Lanier hooks a feisty rainbow trout almost every day he hits the waters in the lower valley of the Flathead River system. From an angler's perspective, the catch is a thrill. Rainbows put up a good fight, much better than the one offered by the state's native westslope cutthroat trout. "And cutthroats that have some rainbow genetics in them typically fight harder for sure," the owner of the Bigfork Anglers Fly Shop told NBC News. About 20 million...

Flood of Reports Point to a Warming Earth But Concern Drops
2014-05-26 04:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Forward: May 2014 was one of the most worrisome months in recent memory for the health of the planets climate. The month saw a sudden, unexpected increase in the pace of really scary new climate-change studies coming out of scientific research institutes in America and Europe. Some of the studies document the impact of climate change, which is arriving faster and hitting harder than even pessimists predicted. Others examine likely future impact on sea level, weather, global economy and more. Scariest...

Climate Blues: How Environmentalists Chill Out in Warming World
2014-05-24 20:46:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
NBC: Studies warning of an Antarctic ice sheet collapse. A wildfire season that could shatter records. Shellfish eaten away by oceans turned more acidic due to greenhouse gases. U.N. and U.S. reports stating that climate change is advancing more quickly. Everyone gets down about their work from time to time, but for environmentalists, they can sometimes quite literally be dealing with the end of the world as we know it. For some, the answer is obvious: work harder. For others, it's about accepting...

Does the solution to global warming lie in Australia?
2014-05-24 12:22:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Daily Mail: Dryland ecosystems such as deserts play a more important role in the global carbon cycle than previously thought, research has revealed. And one of the biggest contributors, responsible for a huge spike in the amount of CO2 absorbed in 2011, is located in Australia. The findings suggest that the Australian Outback, when exposed to increased rainfall and in turn grows more vegetation, could become a giant 'carbon sink' and might even be a major driver for global carbon absorption. Research...
