The study by Maarten van Herpen et al., entitled “Photocatalytic Chlorine Atom Production on Mineral Dust-Sea Spray Aerosols over North Atlantic,” was funded in part by the NGO Spark Climate Solutions ...

Two-thirds of global methane release is likely due to natural emission during anaerobic (oxygen-free) activity of single-celled microorganisms called archaea. The protein mechanism has now been ...

Global surface temperatures have risen by 1.1°C relative to preindustrial times, predominantly due to anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (IPCC, 2021). Methane (CH 4) emissions from human ...

Avoiding the worst impacts of climate change may require removing methane from industrial emissions streams and the atmosphere — but researchers are so far stymied on how to capture the potent ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Historically the thick green of the Amazon has been our planet’s ...

A study explores effects of Saharan dust clouds on atmospheric methane. Its findings have potentially far-reaching implications for understanding the global methane budget and reasons behind the ...
