Researchers Solve Ocean Methane Puzzle

Agricultural and industrial activities generate large quantities of methane, a greenhouse gas that adds to global warming. A number of bacteria also create methane as a byproduct of their metabolism. Some of this naturally emitted methane originates from the ocean, an occurrence that has long mystified scientists as there are no known methane-producing organisms existing near the ocean’s surface.

Study Reveals Shortening of Oceanic Food Chain Due to Environmental Disturbances

An innovative study has demonstrated that environmental changes such as El Niño disturb the marine food chain at Southern California. This finding is contrast to traditional notion that the hierarchy of food chain in the ocean is mostly unaltered as time passes.

A Combination of Sunlight and Microbes Convert Arctic Carbon into Carbon Dioxide

Almost half of the organic carbon stored in soil globally is contained in Arctic permafrost, which has undergone rapid melting, and that organic material could be changed to greenhouse gases that would worsen global warming.
