The earth’s oceans play a central role in sustaining life on our planet. They supply the food chain, provide other life-sustaining natural resources, and regulate our global climate. And because they enable shipping that connects people and countries everywhere, oceans facilitate 90% of the worl...
Mountains, lakes and oceans pass by in a beautiful stream of rapidly changing scenery as you orbit the Earth every 90 minutes. Sounds like something unreal out of a science fiction novel, right? For the crews of the International Space Station (ISS), it's a reality. In 1984, President ...
The estimated total value of the world’s forests is as much as $150 trillion—nearly double the value of global stock markets. The ability of forests to regulate the climate through carbon storage is by far the largest component of that total value, accounting for as much as 90%. The mo...
Even if you don't have a dehumidifier, there are some things you can do to help keep humidity from damaging your house. Promptly repair leaky plumbing and faucets, patch cracks in your home's foundation, and try to keep your gutters clean. This can prevent moisture from seeping into your...
This runoff also comes from snowmelt, which occurs when the sun and climate changes melt snow and ice. Finally, some of this runoff makes it way back into lakes and oceans, where it is again evaporated by the sun. You can learn more about the water cycle in How the Earth Works. ...

Haptophytes may assimilate dissolved methionine, finely regulate genes involved in methionine cycle and B12 transport and/or limit B12 transport to the mitochondrion. Taken together, these results provide better understanding of B12 metabolism in haptophytes and represent valuable data for deciphering ...
How does the temperature of ocean water affect sea level? Explain how increasing amounts of carbon dioxide dissolving in the ocean leads to ocean acidification. What is ocean acidification and why is it a major threat? How do the oceans regulate climate? What are the ef...
