A study has found New Zealand's native forests are absorbing more carbon dioxide (CO2) than previously thought. Study leader, ...

More recently, Fung has coupled her carbon-cycle model with existing large-scale computer climate models to project how land and ocean carbon sinks are likely to change as global warming proceeds.

Because carbon fluxes estimated in tropical forests were based on the “flux” method, C sinks estimated were gross sinks. Tropical deforestation emissions were estimated by a book-keeping model.

Their model suggests that cement has sequestered about 4.5 gigatons of carbon since 1930. And the annual sequestration rate has been increasing overtime, reaching 0.25 gigatons of carbon in 2013.

Because carbon fluxes estimated in tropical forests were based on the “flux” method, C sinks estimated were gross sinks. Tropical deforestation emissions were estimated by a book-keeping model.

Cost-effective carbon dioxide removal technologies play a key role in combating climate change. A team of researchers at the University of Maine in collaboration with Conscience Bay Research have ...

A new satellite-based product can now map the ocean carbon sink at unprecedented resolution.Although the oceanic sink for the ...

At the decadal scale, the carbon budget imbalance is about plus or minus 2.4 gigatons of carbon for the ENSO model and 3.6 gigatons for the GCP model. These imbalances make it more challenging to ...

More than half-way complete, the Dutch Slough Restoration Project will create a powerful carbon sink to combat climate change while also restoring wetlands to bring back native wildlife to the area.
