Roadside Plants Witness COVID Traffic

Eric Davidson, president-elect of AGU by Eric Davidson 7 January 20237 January 2023

Radiocarbon in roadside plants revealed a decline in auto emissions during COVID lockdown and a 2021 rebound. Could this improve emission estimates in countries without CO2 monitoring infrastructure?

Una explosión de radiocarbono del pasado

by Caroline Hasler 31 October 202222 March 2023

El fechamiento por radiocarbono es un pilar de la climatología y la arqueología. Sin embargo, esta metodología se encuentra amenazada por las emisiones de combustibles fósiles, que invalidan una señal útil proveniente de pruebas nucleares.

Tracing Anthropogenically Emitted Carbon Dioxide into the Ocean

Aaron Sidder, freelance science writer by Aaron Sidder 17 October 202215 March 2023

Researchers labeled anthropogenically emitted carbon and tracked it with an ocean circulation model to determine whether it winds up in the sky or sea.

Warming and Agitation Intensify Seagrass Meadow Carbon Fluxes

by Jorge Villa 17 October 202212 October 2022

Carbon dioxide emissions surge in sediments when temperature and agitation increase, both of which are likely to continue rising in degraded Mediterranean seagrass meadows.

Exploring Carbon Emissions in Peatland Restoration

Sarah Derouin, Science Writer by Sarah Derouin 22 September 202228 February 2023

Rewetting bogs can increase methane emissions in the short term, but ultimately the approach helps restore peatlands and create larger carbon sinks.
