How does the environment respond to humans? Archives – Page 2 of 4

Researchers demonstrated that microbial DNA from a 300-year-old ice core can help track how microbes respond to global change.

Scientists found that growing fractures caused an East Antarctic ice shelf to collapse.

Scientists modeled forest productivity before and after wildfires. They found that plant regrowth depended on the type of biome and how much…

Researchers modeled groundwater temperature trends from 2000 to 2100. They estimated that groundwater could warm by up to 3.5°C over the…

Geologists studied gas fluxes from groundwater springs uncovered by melting Arctic glaciers. They estimated that these springs release over…

Researchers found that soil microbes release less methane but more carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide in draining peatlands.

Researchers found higher soil surface temperatures prevented seedling survival and forest expansion in low-elevation forests.

Researchers showed that rising temperatures make it harder for bumblebees to detect their sugary food sources.

Researchers found that sulfuric and nitric acids from human activities dissolve more limestone in aquifers than they previously thought,…

Researchers found the melting Greenland Ice Sheet is releasing tons of icebergs into the North Atlantic Ocean that could further disrupt…
