Carbon mineralization is a process by which gaseous carbon dioxide reacts chemically with certain rock types and transforms into solid carbonate minerals. This natural process is an essential part of ...

When it comes to diatoms that live in the ocean, new research suggests that photosynthesis is not the only strategy for accumulating carbon. Instead, these single-celled plankton are also building ...

Carbon is found all around the Earth, including in our bodies. While most of the carbon can be found in the geosphere, it is ...

The movement of carbon between the atmosphere, oceans and continents -- or carbon cycle -- regulates Earth's climate, with the ocean playing a major role in carbon sequestration. A new study finds ...

As global temperatures continue to rise, scientists are working to understand how warming affects the planet’s carbon cycle. A new study published in Biocontaminant reveals that higher temperatures ...
