HUMPDAY NEWS ROUNDUP: Carbons and Castros and Whales (Oh My)

HUMPDAY NEWS ROUNDUP: Carbons and Castros and Whales (Oh My) April 21, 2021 OSU Prof Helps Find… Carbon  Oregon State University professor of ocean ecology and biogeochemistry Rick Colwell was one of the researchers to find massive amounts of carbon-dependent organisms under our feet. They live there with about 15 to 23 billion tons of carbon. The research found that 70% of the total number of microorganisms on Earth live in and below the Earth’s crust, far from sunlight, moving carbon around. Researchers drilled holes, they looked through high powered microscopes, they tested for carbon. Why do they care about carbon? Because these teeny-tiny life forms breathe carbon in, expel carbon out, and their continued existence means there could reasonably be life in space that does not rely on oxygen. Pretty darn cool, huh?
