The carbon cycle in our oceans is critical to the balance of life in ocean waters and for reducing carbon in the atmosphere, a significant process to curbing climate change or global warming.

Scientists recently discovered that the giant 'conveyer belt' currents that push star-forged material out of our galaxy and pull it back in can also transport carbon atoms. That means that a good deal ...

For the first time, scientists have resolved extremely intense tropical cyclones and their effect on the ocean carbon cycle ...

Over 300 million years ago, Earth experienced powerful bursts of carbon dioxide from natural sources—like massive volcanic eruptions—that triggered dramatic drops in ocean oxygen levels. These ancient ...

Recent studies and warnings from NASA have sparked global concern about the long-term sustainability of Earth’s oxygen supply. The implications of a diminishing oxygen reserve are profound, ...
