As Some Soils Warm, Microbes Stockpile Essential Nutrients
A study in Iceland found that microbes are hoarding more nitrogen for themselves, altering nutrient cycling and leaving less for plants.
What Americans Lose If Their National Center for Atmospheric Research Is Dismantled
Five ways dismantling NCAR will cost the American people, and two ways to save it.
Rocks Formed by Microbes Absorb Carbon Day and Night
Microbialite ecosystems in South Africa stored an “astonishing” amount of carbon, according to new research.
Report: 13 Great Lakes’ Worth of Water Underlies the Contiguous United States
Researchers used 1 million data points and a machine learning algorithm to estimate groundwater stores with higher resolution than ever before.
Calibrating the Clocks: Reconciling Groundwater Age from Two Isotopes
A new quantitative model corrects for tracer-based age biases from 39Ar and 14C isotopes leading to more accurate estimates of groundwater residence times.
Kyanite Exsolution Reveals Ultra-Deep Subduction of Continents
Laboratory experiments provide the first experimental evidence that continental rocks can be subducted to depths greater than 300 kilometers and return to the surface.
Discovering Venus on Iceland
Scientists trekked across Icelandic lava flows that served as stand-ins for Venus’s volcanic landscapes, testing tools and methods the upcoming VERITAS mission will use when it reaches the planet.
We Are “Living Beyond Our Hydrological Means,” UN Report Warns
Humanity has overspent and depleted freshwater in the world’s aquifers, glaciers, wetlands, and other natural reservoirs to an irreversible degree, according to a new United Nations report.
Los glaciares se están calentando más lentamente de lo esperado, pero no por mucho tiempo
