A new study, led by Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) and Columbia University, identifies a diverse set 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 ...

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. A study ...

Conceptual framework illustrating the possible relationships between microbial CUE and R h on the basis of stoichiometric theory and microbial community theory. Soils store more carbon than the ...

How is carbon metabolized and processed in different ecosystems? In a recent study published in the journal Communications Earth & Environment, researchers led by Joely Maak, the study’s first author ...
