Durante la expedición Pan-ártica, los investigadores obtuvieron y utilizaron datos de carbono y elementos traza para comprender mejor cómo el cambio climático afectará la producción primaria en una de las regiones de calentamiento más rápido del mundo.Read More »Biogeosciences
Scientists studying a cyanobacterium isolated from rock samples in the Atacama Desert found out how the bacteria extract water to live. Their results may help identify likely sites for life on Mars.Read More »
Saharan dust events can spread bacterial pathogens over long distances, but we may be able to predict the human health risk from exposure.Read More »Science Policy & Funding
Continental shelves and estuaries are natural sources of nitrous oxide, but current global estimates of these emissions carry a lot of uncertainty, a problem that calls for regional studies.Read More »Biogeosciences
