Atmospheric oxygenation is critical to the development of Earth’s habitability. Oxygen levels, as shown in Fig.1, were very low (<10–7–10–5of the present atmospheric level [PAL]) for the first half of Earth history and then rose to something like 10–3–10–1 PAL during the Grea...
Last year wasn't just the Earth's hottest year on record—it left a century of high temperature marks in the dust. The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration and NASA announced Wednesday that 2015 was by far the hottest year in 136 years of record keeping. For the most part, scientists...
