Melting Arctic Permafrost To Cause Massive but Gradual CO2 Release
2015-04-09 19:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Yale Environment 360: A comprehensive new study of the potential climate change impacts of melting Arctic permafrost says that a vast amount of carbon dioxide will be released from thawing permafrost but that it will seep out gradually, rather than in an abrupt carbon bomb. Working since 2011, a group of 17 Arctic permafrost scientists studied the rate at which permafrost is thawing and the resulting release of CO2. The scientists concluded that Arctic permafrost has undergone a stunning degree of warming, rising from...

Scientists confirm that the Arctic could become a major source of carbon emissions
2015-04-09 01:56:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Washington Post: As the frozen Arctic soil known as "permafrost" thaws, it could release large amounts of carbon in the form of both carbon dioxide and methane to the atmosphere. And this new source of greenhouse gas emissions could be large enough that it could substantially undermine attempts to cut down on emissions from fossil fuels. Now, an overview of what we know about the permafrost carbon problem has just come out in Nature, written by a group of 17 experts on the matter. In other words, this...
