Not exact matches

The piece of Alka - Seltzer tablet you drop in after releases small bubbles of carbon dioxide gas that rise to the top and take some of the coloured water along for the ride.

«The primary producers, the phytoplankton, take carbon dioxide out of the surface waters and «fix» it into a form of carbon that can sink down to the deep where it is stored,» Gibson says.

New research by University of Delaware oceanographer Wei - Jun Cai and colleagues at Université Libre de Bruxelles, Texas A&M University - Corpus Christi, University of Hawaii at Manoa and ETH Zurich, now reveals that the water over the continental shelves is shouldering a larger portion of the load, taking up more and more of this atmospheric carbon dioxide.

In particular, they investigated stomata, small pores on plant leaves that take in carbon dioxide and lose water to the atmosphere.

The EPA did take one tiny step — among the Bush administration's only ones to date — toward tackling global warming last week when it released regs governing how companies may pump and store carbon dioxide underground (to limit climate change) without violating the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Plants have tiny pores on their leaves called stomata — Greek for mouths — through which they take in carbon dioxide from the air and from which water evaporates.

The decision to study stomata in grasses was made not just because these plants are economically and environmentally important, but because grasses show several unique innovations that make their stomata much more efficient in taking up carbon dioxide while limiting water loss.

When they're open, plants take in carbon dioxide and lose water.

Basically, although the gas is indeed easily absorbed by sea - water, it is the timescales that matter: mixing of shallow and deep oceanic waters takes place over hundreds to thousands of years but sea - water can de-gas parts of its carbon dioxide payload over much, much shorter periods.

The oxidation of acetate takes precedence over other nutrients (meaning when consumed alcohol is being «used» first over other macros) and is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water.

✅ When ingested, baking soda reacts with the acid in the stomach to produce common salt, water and carbon dioxide, which are harmless.It is advised to dissolve the powder completely in water and then take it.

Disputes within climate science concern the nature and magnitude of feedback processes involving clouds and water vapor, uncertainties about the rate at which the oceans take up heat and carbon dioxide, the effects of air pollution, and the nature and importance of climate change effects such as rising sea level, increasing acidity of the ocean, and the incidence of weather hazards such as floods, droughts, storms, and heat waves.

There is no direct connection between -18 °C to 15 °C accounted for by the «greenhouse gases water and carbon dioxide which take in radiated longwave».

It took about one percent of the world economy to develop the modern infrastructure of clean water and indoor plumbing; that's roughly what will be required to get rid of «another kind of human waste» — carbon dioxide emissions from burning fuels.

Science: While it is true that plants photosynthesize, and therefore take up carbon dioxide as a way of forming energy with the help of the sun and water, this gas is both a direct pollutant (think acidification of oceans) and more importantly is linked to the greenhouse effect.

On the other hand, by taking into account the mean free path length of photons through the troposphere and the mass fraction of each absorbent gas, water vapor interferes with photons 84 % more frequently than carbon dioxide, at any waveband you choose.

For more than a decade, researchers have struggled and failed to balance global carbon budgets, which must balance carbon emissions to the atmosphere from fossil fuels (6.3 Pg per year; numbers here from Skee Houghton at Woods Hole Research Center) and land use change (2.2 Pg; deforestation, agriculture etc.) with carbon dioxide accumulation in the atmosphere (3.2 Pg) and the carbon sinks taking carbon out of the atmosphere, especially carbon dioxide dissolving in Ocean surface waters (2.4 Pg).

The introduced carbon dioxide will of course keep absorbing but simultaneous reduction of water vapor will keep total absorption constant and no warming takes place.

He deduced that the cooperation of these gases has to take the form of an optimal atmospheric transmittance window for infrared radiation, such that if the concentration of one gas, say carbon dioxide, varies and changes atmospheric transmittance, the other components, such as water vapor, will have to compensate for it by changing their concentrations.

Carbon dioxide is fully part of that water cycle where water heated by the thermal infrared direct from the Sun evaporates and anyway lighter than air rises in air and takes away heat from the surface — all pure clean rain is carbonic acid, the water vapour spontaneously joining with carbon dioxide in the atmosphere releases its heat in the colder heights and condenses out back into liquid water and ice, cooling the Earth from the 67 °C it would be without the water cycle.

The estimate does not include «external effects such as those that take place through water, soils, noise, and other media,» nor carbon dioxide and its effect on climate change.

Instead, picture a rain jacket with multiple layers that take in water, carbon dioxide and sunlight and wick out a usable product, like a gas or a fuel, he said.

Basically, although the gas is indeed easily absorbed by sea - water, it is the timescales that matter: mixing of shallow and deep oceanic waters takes place over hundreds to thousands of years but sea - water can de-gas parts of its carbon dioxide payload over much, much shorter periods.
