Nature got there first: When CO2 reacts with volcanic rock, it transforms from a greenhouse gas into solid minerals.
Professor was thrilled when he saw 80 to 100 million-year-old cone fossils. The fossils at the Natural History Museum at University of Oslo show seeds and pollen from the time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth.
Glaciers have lost a collective 6542 billion tonnes of ice between 2000 and 2023, contributing 18mm to global sea-level rise, and loss of fresh water reserves. This according to a study from the Glacier Mass Balance Intercomparison Exercise (GlaMBIE) in Nature.
The coastline of Southeast Greenland is uplifting more rapidly than other parts of the island. This is caused by weak rocks beneath this part of Greenland, combined with the melting of the ice sheet, according to researchers.
An underwater mud volcano was discovered in the Barents Sea in 2023. A revisit in 2024 and studies of data reveal that this mud volcano is an important habitat for endangered species and seafloor life.
