Clownfish lost at sea due to rising carbon dioxide levels
2014-11-24 03:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: The tale of a clownfish that got lost at sea in the 2003 movie Finding Nemo may be a taste of things to come - as rising carbon dioxide levels could leave the fish unable to find their way around, say scientists. Tests on clownfish larvae showed they became disoriented and were unable to find a suitable place to live if they were raised in seawater that had absorbed carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. The effect is potentially devastating for a wide range of fish populations because many rely...
Crop Production Amplifies Carbon Dioxide Cycle
2014-11-21 06:22:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Business Times: A research team from Boston University collaborated with other universities and institutions to find out how agricultural production, especially corn, generates up to a quarter of the increase in the carbon cycle. Production statistics of crops mainly produced and consumed worldwide were used in the research. The group found out that yield from corn, wheat, rice and soybean has more than doubled since 1961. Consequently, a billion metric tonnes of carbon is absorbed and released annually. Corn...

Computer model provides a new portrait of carbon dioxide
2014-11-18 11:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: An ultra-high-resolution NASA computer model has given scientists a stunning new look at how carbon dioxide in the atmosphere travels around the globe. Plumes of carbon dioxide in the simulation swirl and shift as winds disperse the greenhouse gas away from its sources. The simulation also illustrates differences in carbon dioxide levels in the northern and southern hemispheres and distinct swings in global carbon dioxide concentrations as the growth cycle of plants and trees changes with the...
