There's a mysterious 'carbon sink' in the hinterlands of the South Island... absorbing more carbon than expected... I'm following this research with interest. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/564407…

Decadal sink-source shifts of forest aboveground carbon since 1988
As enduring carbon sinks, forest ecosystems are vital to the terrestrial carbon cycle and help moderate global warming. However, the long-term dynamics of aboveground carbon (AGC) in forests and their sink-source transitions remain highly uncertain, owing to changing disturbance regimes and inconsistencies in observations, data processing, and analysis methods. Here, we derive reliable, harmonized AGC stocks and fluxes in global forests from 1988 to 2021 at high spatial resolution by integratin…

How oxygen influences the catalytic activity of iron during carbon nanotube nucleation
The catalytic activity of metal nanoparticles toward nucleation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) is fundamental to achieving structure-controlled growth using catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Despite the success of oxidized catalysts in SWCNT growth, there is a lack of understanding regarding how oxygen influences the catalysts and the nucleation process. Quantum chemical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations employing density functional tight binding (DFTB) demonstrate that t…

Global ocean acidification has passed safe planetary boundary threshold: Study
A new assessment finds that the world’s oceans crossed the safe threshold for acidification in 2020, breaching a key planetary boundary and posing serious threats to marine life. Ocean acidification is caused when excess atmospheric carbon dioxide, resulting from human activities like burning fossil fuels, dissolves in seawater, forming carbonic acid that increases the water’s […]

Israeli forces kill 51 Palestinians waiting for flour at Gaza aid site, witnesses and rescuers say
It is potentially the deadliest of the almost daily shootings that have been taking place recently near aid distribution sites.
