So why do so many life-forms breathe oxygen? There are probably thousands of kinds of metabolisms, or chemical processes that maintain life, said Donald Canfield, a geobiologist at the University of ...

All the specific primer pairs employed in this study are given in Supplementary Table S1. Amplicon-based fluorescence thresholds were used to obtain the CT values. The eukaryotic elongation factor 1 ...

Carbon dioxide has been detected on a planet outside our solar system for the first time. The gas has been observed directly by the James Webb Space Telescope on four exoplanets, all belonging to ...

So what causes the difference? According to the team, when the swing-top lid is released, carbon dioxide and air rapidly expand through the narrow neck of the bottle. The sudden decompression ...

As an avid runner who loves racing, I’ve been testing the best carbon plate running shoes ever since the original Nike Vaporfly 4% launched. I’ve tried almost every super-shoe released since ...

But more than once, the singer has found herself in the middle of a media storm over her carbon di­oxide emissions. Swift regularly hops aboard her private jet, as she did in 2024 to get from a ...

To mitigate global climate change, emissions of the primary culprit, carbon dioxide, must be drastically reduced. A newly developed process helps solve this problem: CO 2 is directly split ...

Together with the oceans, they are one of the two most important carbon sinks, due to their capacity to store carbon in the soil and in tree biomass. As such, promoting fast-growing trees could ...

Atmospheric carbon dioxide levels reached 420 parts per million in 2023 ... due to rising greenhouse gas emissions and the 2023-24 El Nino event. El Nino, a periodic warming of the ocean surface in ...

In a groundbreaking discovery, the James Webb Space Telescope has captured the first direct images of carbon dioxide in a planetary system beyond our own, located 130 light-years away in HR 8799.
