Studies show the significance of old-growth forests for biodiversity

Researchers conducted a systematic review of 99 scientific publications that compared the flora or fauna of old-growth forests, managed forests and clearcut sites in boreal Europe. The reviewed studies showed large differences in the species communities inhabiting these forest types.

Protecting seagrasses could prevent billions of dollars in damages, research finds

A study predicts that protecting at-risk seagrass meadows could avert climate damages valued in excess of $200 billion by preventing the release of 1.2 billion tons of carbon pollution. This is equivalent to removing the annual carbon footprint of 100 million…

Long-term study maps greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural soils

A study measured greenhouse gas emissions from farm soils over multiple years, revealing nitrous oxide is highly unpredictable, unlike carbon dioxide. This large, detailed dataset helps improve climate models and guide farming practices to reduce emissions, especially from cornfields under…
