Rivers have long played a key role in the planet’s carbon cycle. They move and release gases like carbon dioxide (CO₂) and methane (CH₄), connecting land, air, and ocean systems. Until recently, ...
New research shows that even healthy tropical peat forests can release more warming gases due to water level changes and ...
A new study has revealed for the first time that ancient carbon, stored in landscapes for thousands of years or more, can find its way back to the atmosphere as CO₂ released from the surfaces of ...

Scientists Find Ancient Carbon Leaking Into the Atmosphere, Posing a Greater Climate Threat
A groundbreaking global study, recently published in Nature, reveals surprising findings about the state of ancient carbon storage and its impact on the atmosphere. For decades, scientists have ...
Ancient carbon thought to be safely stored underground for millennia is unexpectedly resurfacing literally. A sweeping international study has found that over half of the carbon gases released by ...
On our planet, the cycle and balance of carbon from reservoir to reservoir is a matter of life or death. Carbon moves from the atmosphere to the ocean, to carbon-based life forms, to rocks or ...
Artificial light at night is causing ecosystems to release more carbon into the atmosphere, according to new research that matched satellite observations with decades of carbon data from the two most ...
Our planet has experienced dramatic climate shifts throughout its history, oscillating between freezing "icehouse" periods ...
