Melting glaciers could speed up carbon emissions into the atmosphere

The loss of glaciers worldwide enhances the breakdown of complex carbon molecules in rivers, potentially contributing further to climate change.
An international research team led by the University of Leeds has for the first time linked glacier-fed mountain rivers with higher rates of plant material decomposition, a major process in the global carbon cycle.
As mountain glaciers melt, water is channelled into rivers downstream. But with global warming accelerating the loss of glaciers, rivers have warmer water temperatures and are less prone to variable water flow and sediment movement. These conditions are then much more favourable for fungi to establish and grow. ....

Space cooling already accounts for 14% of residential electricity demand in Brazil, and it is expected to increase further because of climate change.
Very few studies investigate the relationship between climate change, cooling needs, and electricity demand. In a new study in
Energy and Buildings, a team of researchers from Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro and CMCC@Ca Foscari - a joint program of Ca Foscari University of Venice and CMCC Foundation - investigate how climate and income during the period 1970-2010 shaped cooling services in Brazil. This historical relationship allows projecting the resulting energy demand for cooling services across three warming scenarios: +1.5°C, +2°C, +4°C. ....

RICHLAND, Wash. As part of a marathon research effort to lower the cost of carbon capture, chemists have now demonstrated a method to seize carbon dioxide (CO2) that reduces costs by 19 percent compared to current commercial technology. The new technology requires 17 percent less energy to accomplish the same task as its commercial counterparts, surpassing barriers that have kept other forms of carbon capture from widespread industrial use. And it can be easily applied in existing capture systems. ....

An epic walk: 15 million years needed for dinosaurs to get from South America to Greenland


 E-Mail
For the first time, two researchers one from the University of Copenhagen and the other from Columbia University have accurately dated the arrival of the first herbivorous dinosaurs in East Greenland. Their results demonstrate that it took the dinosaurs 15 million years to migrate from the southern hemisphere, as a consequence of being slowed down by extreme climatic conditions. Their long walk was only possible because as CO2 levels dropped suddenly, the Earth s climate became less extreme.
A snail could have crawled its way faster. 10,000 km over 15 million years that s how long it took the first herbivorous dinosaurs to make their way from Brazil and Argentina all the way to East Greenland. This, according to a new study by Professor Lars Clemmensen of the University of Copenhagen s Department of Geosciences and Natural Resource Management and researcher Dennis Kent of New York s Columbia University. ....
